What are brain aneurysm, AV malformation, and trigeminal neuralgia that Salman Khan is suffering from?

Salman Khan made a graceful comeback on the new season of The Great Indian Kapil Show on Saturday. As the first guest, he delivered plenty of entertaining moments that made the episode a superhit. The host, Kapil Sharma, asked a few bold questions about Khan’s personal life, and the actor made sure to answer them all. During the episode, Salman spoke very casually about the diseases he has been struggling with till now. When Kapil asked him about his marriage plans, Khan revealed how hard it is to build wealth and how easily a woman might take it all with her after a divorce, likely drawing on his own experiences with his brothers, Arbaaz Khan and Sohail Khan’s divorces. Salman Khan said that he is working at 59, despite many health issues. At this point of time, he doesn’t have the energy to start from scratch, in case the ‘wife’ decides to take ‘half’ his money.

Khan said, “Hum ye jo daily ki haddiyan tudwa rahe hain, pasliyan toot gai, trigeminal neuralgia ke sath kaam kar rahe hain, aneurysm hai brain mein uske bawajood kaam kar rahe hain. AV malformation hai, uske bawajood chal rahe hain (I’m out here breaking my bones every day — ribs are fractured, I’m working despite having trigeminal neuralgia, there’s an aneurysm in the brain, yet I’m still working. There’s also an AV malformation, and still, I’m carrying on)”.

The superstar highlighted the divorces happening today, where the wife receives a whopping alimony amount from the husband. “All of this is going on in my life. Aur jahan unka mood satka, woh aadha humara leke chala gaya. Ye younger age mein hota toh theek tha, phirse kama lete. Ab wapis se… (And the moment their mood soured, they will take away half of what I had. Had this happened when I was younger, it would’ve been fine – I could’ve earned it all back. But now, starting over again…),” He said.

Know About The Diseases Salman Khan is Suffering From

Ever since the episode of The Kapil Sharma Show is out, Salman Khan’s fans have been searching for the medical terms. Here’s a brief of what these diseases are.

What is trigeminal neuralgia?

Trigeminal neuralgia is a chronic pain condition that affects the trigeminal nerve, which carries sensation from your face to your brain. It causes sudden, severe, electric shock-like or stabbing facial pain, usually on one side of the face. The pain can be triggered by everyday activities like brushing, chewing, talking, and touching your face. This condition happens to most people who are above 50. When Salman was in Dubai during Tubelight promotions in 2017, he spoke about trigeminal neuralgia. He mentioned suffering from a painful facial nerve disorder, also called the suicide disease because many patients develop suicidal tendencies.

What is brain aneurysm?

A brain aneurysm (also called a cerebral aneurysm) is a bulge or ballooning in a blood vessel in the brain. It occurs when a weak spot in the wall of a blood vessel fills with blood and swells. Most brain aneurysms don’t cause symptoms and may go unnoticed. In some cases, an aneurysm can leak or rupture, causing bleeding in the brain – this is a medical emergency known as a hemorrhagic stroke.

What is AV malformation?

AV malformation, or arteriovenous malformation (AVM), is a rare condition in which there is an abnormal tangle of blood vessels connecting arteries and veins, bypassing the normal capillary system. AVM can disrupt normal blood flow and oxygen delivery. In an AVM, blood flows directly from arteries to veins, which can cause high blood pressure in delicate veins. This can cause bleeding, seizures, headaches, or neurological issues. AVMs are often congenital and may not show symptoms until a rupture occurs, which can be dangerous.
