Neuralgia

/njʊˈræl.dʒə/noun
ELI5 mode

Neuralgia is a sharp, intense pain that radiates along the path of a nerve, often resulting from irritation, inflammation, or damage to the nerve itself. In modern medical practice, it's commonly associated with conditions like trigeminal neuralgia, which can be triggered by simple actions such as touching the face and may require specialized treatments to manage chronic episodes.
