Question

How should facial paralysis be treated? Do patients with facial paralysis need to be hospitalized? How long should they stay?

Answer

If a thorough examination indicates that it is a case of facial palsy, hospitalization and systematic treatment can be considered. Hospitalization for treatment can yield better results. Additionally, further detailed examinations are necessary to rule out facial palsy caused by central nervous system diseases. It is recommended to undergo active acupuncture therapy, traditional Chinese medicine treatment, and nutritional nerve medication treatment in the hospital, which should be beneficial in alleviating symptoms.
