Patient's question:
How long does it take for facial paralysis to heal? I've been treating it for over 20 days, but my mouth is still a bit crooked and I can't smile.Doctor's answer:
Currently, there are many methods for treating facial paralysis. Commonly effective treatments include applying ointments (most of which are secret recipes, and many are quite effective, such as Mianwan Kang), acupuncture (which is also very effective, but it's best to find an experienced elderly doctor; otherwise, if the wrong nerves are pricked, it's inevitable that regrets will be left behind), oral traditional Chinese medicine regulation, Western medicine treatment, and so on. There are also some common physical therapies, but many can be used as supplementary treatments. In short, as long as the treatment is timely and the methods are appropriate, it is definitely possible to be cured. Maintaining a positive mindset is even more beneficial for the treatment.
