How should facial paralysis in the lips area be treated?
Answer
Facial neuritis, commonly known as facial paralysis, is a disease that affects the movement of facial expression muscles. This condition is common, prone to recurrence, and does not discriminate by age. Facial paralysis is caused by abnormalities in the facial nervous system. Currently, effective treatment for facial paralysis includes medication. If the lips are unable to fully recover due to facial paralysis, systematic rehabilitation training should be conducted in the rehabilitation department. Patients with facial paralysis should pay attention to staying warm in daily life, wear masks when going out, and observe dietary and rest routines. Try to avoid spicy, greasy foods, maintain daily hygiene and cleanliness, and prevent secondary infection by viruses.
