Question
My grandmother has had facial paralysis for ten years. She has been treated for a long time but it hasn’t been cured. Can facial paralysis be treated after twenty years?
Answer
After ten years of facial paralysis, although the course of the disease has been long, the chance of complete recovery is not high. However, through active treatment methods such as acupuncture, physical therapy, and traditional Chinese medicine assistance, symptoms may be relieved to some extent. It is recommended to seek treatment at the traditional Chinese medicine department of a regular hospital and to pay attention to rest, avoiding overexertion. Seeking professional treatment is very important.
