Question

My husband suddenly developed facial paralysis, and it’s scary for the kids to see him every day. I would like to ask the doctor about the six folk remedies for treating facial paralysis.

Answer

If facial paralysis recurs, this situation is most often due to infection or low immunity. Patients may experience a crooked mouth, incomplete eyelid closure, and sometimes the disappearance of the nasolabial groove. In such cases, it is not recommended to use folk remedies. It is advisable to go to the hospital’s neurology department for timely treatment, maintain a light diet, consume plenty of vitamins B group to nourish nerves, and stabilize regional blood circulation with medication.
