Question

Lately, due to high work stress, I’ve been experiencing facial distortion, frequent drooling, loss of appetite, and blurred vision. What should I do?

Answer

Facial paralysis is mainly caused by viral infections of the facial nerve and edema, which are controlled by the facial nerve canal. It can be treated and its recovery accelerated through a combination of traditional Chinese medicine acupuncture and Western medicine hormone therapy, typically requiring about a month.
