Question
The corners of my mouth droop significantly when speaking. The test and detailed examination results: haven’t carefully reviewed past treatment situations and effects: currently no treatment has been administered. I want to know how to treat it.
Answer
If you don’t have any obvious limb discomfort symptoms and your tongue extends to the left, then you likely have a peripheral facial palsy caused by catching a cold, which absolutely needs timely treatment. In fact, whether it’s peripheral or central facial palsy, acupuncture combined with traditional Chinese medicine is an effective treatment method. The sooner treatment begins, the better the outcome, and the lower the risk of sequelae. Therefore, it is recommended to consult the acupuncture department of a traditional Chinese hospital as soon as possible.
