About this study

The goal of this clinical trial is to compare the effectiveness of Pulsed Radiofrequency (PRF) with Pulsed and Thermal Radiofrequency (PRF + TRF) in treating Trigeminal Neuralgia (TN) in adults. The main questions it aims to answer are: * Does PRF or PRF + TRF provide better pain relief for patients with trigeminal neuralgia? * What is the safety profile and complication rate of PRF versus PRF + TRF? Researchers will compare the effects of PRF and PRF + TRF to see if thermal lesioning in addition to pulsed RF provides superior long-term pain relief and reduces the need for analgesic medication. Participants will: * Undergo either PRF or PRF + TRF treatment targeting the trigeminal nerve. * Be assessed for pain relief, functional status, and adverse events over a 3-month follow-up period.
