Question
After recovery from facial paralysis, the facial nerve still occasionally twitches. Are there any ways to improve this?
Answer
Even after facial paralysis patients have basically recovered through the use of traditional Chinese medicine and acupuncture treatment, they may still experience facial nerve twitches and slight asymmetry. It is important to be cautious about diet, avoid spicy and irritating foods, and help with nerve repair. It is recommended to consume more fresh vegetables, fruits, whole grains, beans, fish, and to regularly visit a doctor for monitoring the recovery progress.
