Patient's question:
How long does acupuncture take to treat facial paralysis?Doctor's answer:
Facial paralysis often leads people to choose traditional Chinese medicine (TCM) for treatment, as it is a very healthy approach to managing the condition. The duration of TCM treatment, particularly acupuncture, for facial paralysis depends on the severity of the patient's condition. If the condition is mild, recovery can be quite rapid. It is advisable to take some gamma-oryzanol and vitamin B to nourish the nerves. It is also important to maintain a stable emotional state, avoid spicy and irritating foods, and get plenty of rest.
