Patient's question:
Facial paralysis, 2 months in the recovery period of acupuncture, slow progressDoctor's answer:
To continue acupuncture treatment, combined with traditional Chinese medicine, it is important to strengthen the function of facial expression muscles through exercises and massage, avoid wind and cold, and maintain a light diet. Facial paralysis is a common clinical condition with a relatively slow recovery process. It has an acute onset, a long course of disease, and a prolonged treatment period. The recovery from this condition requires symptomatic drug treatment, but more importantly, it necessitates the combination of traditional therapies such as acupuncture and massage to improve. Long-term acupuncture is less effective, and with mental distress and poor sleep, the head feels quite heavy.
