Question
Can facial paralysis be recovered?
Answer
Facial paralysis can significantly impact quality of life, so it should be treated actively. The vast majority of facial paralysis cases can heal on their own, but a small percentage may leave residual symptoms. After diagnosis, it is advisable to actively use antiviral drugs, nerve-nourishing medications, and corticosteroids for treatment, and also combine with traditional Chinese medicine, acupuncture, massage, and moxibustion. It’s also important to consume a diet rich in nutrients and easy to digest.
