Question
My father is 51 years old. One morning, he had facial paralysis during his morning exercise, and then he went to a traditional Chinese medicine clinic for acupuncture treatment. However, now two months have passed and he is still not better. Hello, my father has had facial paralysis for two months without improvement, what should I do?
Answer
Hello, the causes of facial paralysis are directly related to cold exposure, overwork, physical weakness, and external wind-cold. Early treatment can involve nutritional neurology drugs, steroid drugs, and other symptomatic treatments. Later treatment can consider acupuncture therapy, massage, traditional Chinese medicine diagnosis and nourishment, blood circulation and blood stasis therapy, etc. It is recommended to go to the traditional Chinese medicine department of a nearby hospital and seek guidance from a doctor for diagnosis and nourishment.
