We report the case of a 39-year-old female patient who suffered from trigeminal neuralgia of the left lingual nerve for 6 years. The previous therapy according to the guidelines including a Jannetta operation was unsuccessful. Only after beginning with daily mastication and consumption of very hot chilli peppers has the patient become reliably pain-free.
