Question
The child has been applying the facial paralysis ointment for almost a month, but sometimes they still feel unnatural when smiling, and their mouth still looks slightly protruding . This has already significantly affected the child’s normal life. How long does the recovery period for facial paralysis typically last?
Answer
For the child who is being treated with the ointment, I personally feel that the effect may not be very good. It would be better to combine acupuncture treatment or consume more nutritional foods for the nerves. If there are also issues with taste, attention should be given to food nourishment. Doing many facial muscle exercises is also beneficial, and you can also use hot water compresses regularly. These are all conducive to a complete recovery.
