Does trigmenial neuropathy ever recover? (not trigmenial neuralgia)
A doctor has provided 1 answer
VARIES: Really depends on cause, and if a main branch or division. If myelin coverings affected, reversal could occur in 4-5 weeks, but if internal axon injured, might take months if ever. This can be tested by electrodiagnostic studies, which may confirm prognosis.
