Question
How to treat facial paralysis complications?
Answer
Facial paralysis complications are categorized into central and peripheral types, usually caused by infections, trauma, poisoning, or metabolic disorders. Patients may suddenly notice facial muscle asymmetry and drooping of the corners of the mouth when washing their face in the morning. Symptoms may include inability to furrow the brow on the affected side. If facial paralysis occurs, it is essential to seek immediate treatment at a regular hospital. Detailed otolaryngological examinations and facial nerve electromyography can help understand the extent of facial nerve damage. The treatment for facial paralysis is typically quite strict.
