What causes trigeminal neuralgia? What are the things that triggers the pain? Any suggestion on what to avoid?

My mom suffers from trigeminal neuralgia I just want to know things on how to help her to ease the pain.. Thank You so much..Your info will be much appreciated..

I have suffered this awful condition, i was put on Tegretol (an epilepsy drug) and it went away. Im not sure what triggers it but….its tgh compression of the root of the trigeminal nerve by an abnormally positioned blood vessel is the most common cause of trigeminal neuralgia.
The pressure on the nerve causes it to misfire, resulting in pain. Occasionally, the compression is caused by a tumour, and sometimes there is no obvious cause found. Other, rarer causes of trigeminal neuralgia include multiple sclerosis and strokes affecting the lower part of the brain.
