Question
The mother has recently been unable to cook, constantly complaining of dizziness and headaches, and feeling unwell. She wants to understand the cause of facial muscle twitching due to facial paralysis.
Answer
Based on the description, it may be a facial paralysis caused by facial nerve palsy leading to a dysfunction in facial muscle movement. It is recommended to use acupoint injection therapy, which is more effective than simple acupuncture treatment. The cause may be due to insufficient Qi and an invasion of wind evil, leading to facial neuritis. Treatment includes acupuncture and taking medications that nourish the nerves, with a diet that is light and free from spicy and irritating foods.
