Question
Hello, what are the causes of bilateral facial paralysis?
Answer
Based on the situation you described, if a thorough examination suggests bilateral facial paralysis, it is likely that Guillain-Barré Syndrome should be considered as a possibility. It is relatively rare for peripheral facial neuritis to cause circumferential facial paralysis. Therefore, in the current situation, it is advisable to undergo a systematic examination and treatment in the hospital. Further lumbar puncture examination may be required to understand whether it is an manifestation of Guillain-Barré Syndrome.
