Question
I have unexpectedly developed facial paralysis and want to get it treated. Could the doctor explain what medications are available for facial paralysis?
Answer
Facial paralysis, also known as facial nerve palsy, may be related to factors such as excessive stress in daily work and life, catching a cold, or other reasons. Generally, for this type of disease, traditional Chinese medicine is considered a good option. It can be treated through traditional Chinese medicine, such as herbal medicine and acupuncture, and actively cooperate with some nerve-nourishing medications. During the treatment period, patients should pay attention to regular work and rest, be mindful of avoiding colds, and maintain a light and healthy diet.
