Patient's question:
What medications or diet can help alleviate the symptoms of facial paralysis?Doctor's answer:
Dietary Therapy: Since the occurrence of facial paralysis is related to a lack of vitamins in the body, facial paralysis patients can supplement more vitamins in their daily lives. At the same time, they should pay attention to a balanced diet, avoid overeating, excessive alcohol consumption, and picky eating, as well as alcohol poisoning. Facial paralysis patients can consume more Fengfeng congee, which can help dispel wind, relieve external pathogens, and dispel cold, being very beneficial for facial paralysis caused by wind-cold invasion. Mint candy has the effect of relieving wind and clearing heat, and is very helpful for treating sudden mouth and eye deviation, incomplete eyelid closure, and dry throat with slight thirst. Frequently cooking fish heads with Chuanxiong and Baizhi water has the effects of dispelling wind, dispelling cold, invigorating blood circulation, and unblocking collaterals, being very helpful for treating facial paralysis caused by external wind pathogens.
