Patient's question:
I have had facial paralysis for four years, leaving behind sequelae. When not speaking, I look no different from others. But when I smile, half of my face cannot lift, my eyebrow cannot raise, and there is a heavy feeling.Doctor's answer:
First and foremost, it is particularly important to focus on enhancing one's physical fitness, so that the patient's facial muscle function can be restored smoothly. In the care of facial paralysis, it is advisable to consume less greasy and indigestible foods. Patients with facial paralysis should eat more vegetables and fruits, and also consume some staple foods and coarse grains to maintain sufficient energy supply to the body and enhance disease resistance. Proper exercise is also essential for patients with facial paralysis.
