Question
How long should the facial paralysis plaster be applied?
Answer
The facial paralysis plaster usually needs to be applied for about two to four weeks. If the patient’s condition is severe, simply applying the plaster may not be sufficient; if the condition is mild, applying the facial paralysis plaster can be effective. Facial paralysis often manifests as the inability to furrow the eyebrows, food residue during defecation, water leakage when washing the face, and air leakage when whistling, among other clinical symptoms. For severe cases, a combination of traditional Chinese and Western medicine rehabilitation treatments is considered the best approach for facial paralysis treatment.
