Question
Should facial paralysis patients receive acupuncture treatment?
Answer
Facial paralysis patients should seek active treatment as soon as possible after the onset of their condition. Patients with facial paralysis often experience nerve damage affecting the face, leading to symptoms such as drooping eyelids and mouth. In the early stages of facial paralysis, medication and acupuncture can be effective in completely curing the condition. Delaying treatment could lead to neural inflammation and potentially other conditions.
