BC Place lights up teal for Trigeminal Neuralgia Awareness
October 7th, 2018
BC Place will light up teal on Sunday, October 7th for Trigeminal Neuralgia International Awareness Day.
Trigeminal neuralgia (TN) is a facial nerve disorder that causes sudden and severe shock-like pain in the face. The disease affects approximately 1.5% of the population. TN can be caused by the irritation of a blood vessel lying in close proximity to the nerve root or by damage to the nerve caused by disease or trauma.
