Question
My sister has been suffering from facial paralysis for eight months. She has been receiving treatment during this time, but the condition has not improved. I would like to ask, can facial paralysis be cured after eight months of illness?
Answer
Facial paralysis is not limited by age, and if the optimal treatment window is missed when facial paralysis symptoms appear, it may lead to many complications. It is recommended that you seek treatment at a regular hospital. The majority of patients with facial paralysis can recover after acupuncture treatment. For patients with facial paralysis who have been ill for eight months, it is essential to cooperate with the doctor for active treatment. Maintaining a good attitude and frequently using a hot towel to compress the face or regularly massaging the face can be very helpful for the condition of facial paralysis.
