Question

I experienced drooping of the eyelids and corners of my mouth in June, and after hospital examination, I was diagnosed with facial paralysis. What are the treatment methods for facial paralysis?

Answer

The treatment for facial paralysis includes controlling regional inflammation and reducing neural damage, which can be achieved using antiviral drugs, neural nutritional drugs, corticosteroids, and vitamin B complex. In traditional Chinese medicine treatment, massage and facial exercises can help promote blood circulation and neural recovery. For patients with taste disorders, it is important to pay attention to food temperature, avoid hard foods, and maintain good oral hygiene.
