Question

What is the treatment for sudden syncope in patients with facial paralysis?

Answer

Facial paralysis is typically caused by Bell’s palsy or facial muscle paralysis and usually does not lead to syncope. However, if the patient experiences syncope, an immediate detailed examination should be conducted, including blood pressure measurement and brain CT scans, to determine the specific cause. If brain hemorrhage or cerebrovascular diseases are found, treatment should be initiated as soon as possible. In addition, blood glucose tests and dynamic blood pressure monitoring should be performed to ensure a comprehensive assessment of the patient’s health status.
