Facial Paralysis Treatment Recommendations

In the early stages of facial paralysis, treatment can include corticosteroids combined with vitamin B complex, cold compresses, and anti-infection (anti-viral and bacterial) measures. In the later stages, electronic acupuncture, cold compresses, and regional physical therapy can be used. Generally, most patients can recover and heal quickly through appropriate treatment. Although some patients may require a longer treatment period and even leave mild sequelae, it will not affect normal daily life. Additionally, actively participating in physical exercise, maintaining mental and physical health, and practicing good personal hygiene can also aid in the recovery from facial paralysis.
