Answers
Facial paralysis refers to the weakness or paralysis of one side of the face, which is often due to exposure to cold weather or complications from viral infections. In the initial stage, treatment typically includes intravenous medication, the use of antiviral drugs, nerve-nourishing medications, and drugs to stabilize the microcirculation, with the entire course lasting about two weeks. Usually, after this period of treatment, symptoms will disappear. If symptoms do not completely resolve after treatment, consider alternative treatments such as acupuncture, physical therapy, or traditional Chinese medicine.
