Question

What Are the Symptoms of Facial Paralysis?

Answer

The symptoms of facial paralysis include the inability to move facial muscles, which may be caused by trigeminal nerve disorders. Treatment involves regional massage, heat therapy, closure, acupuncture, and may include oral herbal medicine for promoting blood circulation and removing blood stasis. Avoid spicy, alcoholic, and cold irritating foods. If the condition does not improve, consider hospital treatment with minimally invasive surgery (neurotomy).
