About: Geniculate ganglionitis

An Entity of Type: disease, from Named Graph: http://dbpedia.org, within Data Space: dbpedia.org

Geniculate ganglionitis or geniculate neuralgia (GN), also called nervus intermedius neuralgia, Ramsay Hunt syndrome, or Hunt's neuralgia, is a rare disorder characterized by severe paroxysmal neuralgic pain deep in the ear, that may spread to the ear canal, outer ear, mastoid or eye regions. GN may also occur in combination with trigeminal or glossopharyngeal neuralgia. GN is rare, and only limited data is available regarding the incidence, prevalence, and risk factors associated with this condition. Middle-aged adults, however, seem to be predominantly affected, women more than men.

dbo:abstract
  • Geniculate ganglionitis or geniculate neuralgia (GN), also called nervus intermedius neuralgia, Ramsay Hunt syndrome, or Hunt's neuralgia, is a rare disorder characterized by severe paroxysmal neuralgic pain deep in the ear, that may spread to the ear canal, outer ear, mastoid or eye regions. GN may also occur in combination with trigeminal or glossopharyngeal neuralgia. The pain of GN is sharp, shooting or burning and can last for hours. Painful attacks can be triggered by cold, noise, swallowing or touch, but triggers are usually unique to the sufferer. Other related symptoms that may be experienced include increased salivation, bitter taste, tinnitus and vertigo. GN is rare, and only limited data is available regarding the incidence, prevalence, and risk factors associated with this condition. Middle-aged adults, however, seem to be predominantly affected, women more than men. (en)
