Question
Can patients with facial palsy eat donkey meat?
Answer
Patients with facial palsy can eat donkey meat in moderation, but they should avoid spicy and smoked foods. Using a hot water bottle to warm the affected area every night, along with appropriate physical therapy and massage, can help stabilize the symptoms over time. Patients with facial palsy should not consume spicy and greasy foods like chili and garlic, as they can easily cause internal heat, potentially exacerbating the symptoms of facial palsy. Moreover, smoking and drinking should be avoided as well, as they may worsen the primary diseases such as otitis media, which can further affect the recovery of facial palsy.
