Sluder's neuralgia

Authoring team

This uncommon condition occurs as a result of the middle turbinate pressing on the nasal septum so irritating the nerve as it enters the roof of the nose. Pain is felt at the roof of the nose and radiates to the forehead.

The ultimate treatment is anatomical correction. Temporary relief may be obtained by cocainisation of the nose.
