Question
Does facial palsy require dietary restrictions?
Answer
Patients with facial palsy should avoid spicy and hot foods, such as mutton and dog meat, in their diet. Acupuncture and blood-activating medications can stabilize blood circulation and enhance nerve sensitivity and the recovery of nerve cells. At the same time, combined with rehabilitation training, such as facial acupoint massage and facial muscle exercises, can also help in the recovery of facial palsy.
