Question

During the hot summer days, I often drink beer, blow air conditioning, and stay up late watching football matches. The other day, because of the heat, I didn’t cover myself with a blanket and took a nap. The next morning, I woke up to find my facial muscles stiff and I was drooling. The doctor diagnosed me with facial paralysis due to catching a cold and asked which hospital treats facial paralysis effectively?

Answer

There are many hospitals that treat facial paralysis, and generally, the neurology departments of top-grade hospitals have good treatment effects. When the body’s immune system is low, exposure to wind or viral infection may trigger the onset of facial paralysis. During the acute phase, treatment mainly focuses on promoting the relief of regional inflammation and edema, which can include nutritional nerve treatment and complemented by traditional Chinese medicine acupuncture therapy.
