Question

What are the causes of facial palsy?

Answer

Facial palsy, as diagnosed in clinical settings, is a result of an inflammatory response caused by a viral infection in the facial nerve. It is typically due to decreased resistance following exposure to cold on the face. If you have undergone a thorough examination at a hospital and it has been confirmed, it is advisable to actively pursue medication treatment, and to complement this with therapeutic methods such as traditional Chinese acupuncture and massage. Pay attention to a light diet, avoiding spicy and irritating foods.
