title: [Stress on development of glossalgia and validation of treatment].
abstract: Study of psychoemotional and neurological status of 58 patients with glossalgia showed that stress plays the leading role in development of this abnormality. Neurophysiological analysis of electroencephalograms of patients with glossalgia revealed pronounced generalized restructuring of rhythmic activity of the brain. Ultrasonic dopplerography of the tongue vessels and laser Doppler flowmetry of capillary bloodflow in the tongue confirmed the presence of short-term ischemia in the tongue at the moment of painful attack. Use of modern anxiolytics and antidepressants in combination with ozone therapy in combined therapy of patients with glossalgia is validated.
