Question

What are some effective treatment methods for facial paralysis? What precautions should I take?

Answer

Hello, this could be Bell’s palsy (also known as facial neuritis, Bell’s paralysis, or Herter’s syndrome), commonly referred to as “facial palsy,” “crooked mouth,” “lopsided mouth,” or “dangle wind.” It is characterized by a dysfunction in the facial expression muscle groups. Common symptoms include crooked mouth and eyes, which is a common and frequent disease that is not age-restricted. Patients may be unable to perform basic actions such as raising eyebrows, closing eyes, or pouting. The main treatment methods include acupuncture and facial massage. During treatment, it is important to rest, drink plenty of water, avoid smoking and drinking alcohol, avoid spicy food, do not use electric fans and air conditioning, and keep your head warm in cold weather.
