Question
My sister has had facial paralysis symptoms for several months without any recovery. I would like to ask if there are any cases of facial paralysis patients who have not healed after three months of treatment?
Answer
Facial paralysis may be caused by external wind and cold or due to viral infection. Therefore, during the period of illness in facial paralysis patients, it is essential to implement corresponding treatment based on the specific cause. Most patients will recover after about three months of acupuncture treatment, but there are also some cases where insufficient active treatment leads to the recurrence of symptoms and delayed healing. Wishing the patient a swift recovery to good health!
