Question

The patient asks, after receiving ten days of acupuncture treatment for facial paralysis, whether it will cause nerve damage and how much acupuncture is required.

Answer

The physician explains that treatment for facial paralysis typically includes acupuncture and neural nutritional medications, with each individual’s recovery varying, so the duration of acupuncture treatment differs. The physician points out that long-term acupuncture is unlikely to have adverse effects on the nerves or the body.
