Question
Can the after-effects of facial paralysis be treated?
Answer
Facial paralysis after-effects are composed of two parts. One part is due to the incomplete recovery of the anesthetized nerve on the affected side, and the other part is the potential damaging side effects that may arise during the treatment process, such as acupuncture. Facial paralysis after-effects generally refer to conditions where the disease duration is less than 3 months, and symptoms have not been relieved due to incorrect treatment methods or a combination of various treatments, such as incomplete recovery of facial expression muscles or residual conscious symptoms. However, with appropriate treatment, facial paralysis after-effects can be improved.
