Question
Does facial paralysis have post-stroke symptoms? Why do I feel my facial muscles twitching occasionally?
Answer
Facial paralysis that is not treated thoroughly can result in facial muscle spasms. Based on your description, it may be a symptom of facial muscle spasms. It is recommended to actively seek treatment, which can include conventional treatment combined with acupuncture and internal Chinese medicine. Additionally, cold weather may trigger the condition, so it’s important to keep warm. You can also try using moxibustion sticks on the facial and hand acupoints. It is advisable to consult a local traditional Chinese medicine practitioner, who can base the prescription of Chinese herbs and acupuncture treatment on pulse diagnosis. This is often the best choice.
