Question
What are the symptoms of facial paralysis?
Answer
Facial paralysis is a neurological disorder characterized by symptoms such as a lack of facial expression, drooping corners of the mouth, incomplete eyelid closure, and relaxed facial muscles. In common usage, the term facial paralysis is also employed to describe individuals who seldom speak, don’t smile, and maintain a single facial expression throughout the day. Based on your description, you may have experienced recent increased stress, leading to reduced communication with those around you. However, this does not necessarily mean you have a facial disorder.
