Question
Doctor, hello. My father-in-law had facial palsy and now has residual symptoms. I would like to know about self-treatment methods for post-facial palsy syndrome.
Answer
If you have post-facial palsy syndrome, it generally requires rehabilitation treatment based on the condition. Most often, acupuncture, massage, and physical therapy can be attempted. Daily massage or cold compresses can also be helpful for a full recovery. Moreover, oral medication is necessary, typically involving nerve-nourishing drugs to aid in treatment. It is important to note that you should avoid catching a cold and not get chilled.
