What causes facial paralysis?

Answer

One morning, as I went to bed, I suddenly felt numbness in my face and couldn’t close my eyes. After a doctor’s diagnosis, I was diagnosed with facial paralysis. I want to ask, what causes facial paralysis to occur? The appearance of facial paralysis symptoms can be caused by various reasons. Generally, patients with facial paralysis may develop symptoms after being attacked by cold or wind. Additionally, after suffering from a viral infection, facial paralysis may also occur. Therefore, when treating facial paralysis, doctors will implement symptomatic treatment based on your cause. It is important to take precautions against the cold, avoid direct wind from air conditioning outlets, and wear appropriate clothing and hats when going out to prevent catching a cold or wind.
