Patient's question:
My wife experienced pain in her left ear canal, which later developed into facial paralysis. She underwent treatment and recovered from it a few weeks ago, but the pain has now returned.Doctor's answer:
Your condition may be due to a decline in collective immunity, depletion of meridian qi and blood, and the invasion of wind pathogens that take advantage of the weakness, leading to wind-cold pathogens obstructing facial meridians, resulting in facial paralysis. Acupuncture treatment is the first choice for this condition and has a very good effect. It is recommended to start acupuncture treatment as soon as possible, while avoiding excessive consumption of spicy, greasy, and hard-to-digest foods. Rest more to promote recovery.We know that facial paralysis can cause significant harm to children. If it is not treated in time or if the treatment method is incorrect, its progression is rapid, which can bring great harm to young children. Therefore, it is essential to seek professional medical treatment at a qualified hospital for standardized care—this is the key.
