Question

My sister-in-law recently contracted facial paralysis and is about to be discharged. I want to know if facial paralysis can recur.

Answer

Facial paralysis has the potential for recurrence, but it can be mitigated by taking precautions such as avoiding cold, practicing appropriate physical exercise, eating a balanced diet, and utilizing cold compress therapy. It is recommended to strengthen one’s resistance to cold and communicate further with the attending physician as needed.
