Question

Do You Need Treatment for Facial Paralysis?

Answer

Acupuncture can be an effective treatment for facial paralysis. At the same time, it’s recommended to take B vitamins to nourish the nerves, control emotions, avoid excitement, ensure adequate rest, and refrain from overtime work. For peripheral facial paralysis, hospitalization is usually not required. Treatment primarily involves medication to reduce facial nerve edema, nourish the nerves, and perform jaw exercises. Central facial paralysis typically requires hospitalization. Wishing patients a swift recovery!
