Question
Auntie has been suffering from facial paralysis for two months and the treatment has not shown improvement. What could be the possible reasons?
Answer
Facial paralysis, often referred to as facial neuritis, is usually caused by catching a cold and comes on suddenly. The main treatment methods include using vitamin B complex to nourish the nerves, which can be supplemented with a small amount of hormones, as well as adopting regional cold compresses, acupuncture, moxibustion, and other physical therapies. It is recommended to actively participate in sports training, adjust the mind and body, and maintain personal hygiene.
