Patient's question:
My father got facial paralysis and underwent electrotherapy at an old hospital for half a month. The therapist also prescribed medication. In the past few days, he has been experiencing severe dizziness and sometimes cannot even stand steadily. What could be the reason for this?Doctor's answer:
It is necessary to perform local massage, heat therapy, closed treatment, acupuncture, and other treatments for facial paralysis. Oral Chinese medicine that promotes blood circulation and removes blood stasis is also used for treatment.Avoid spicy food, alcohol, cold foods, and other irritating foods during daily life. If the effect is not satisfactory, minimally invasive surgery (nerve transection) should be performed at the hospital.
