Patient's question:
My uncle didn't have much before, just a bit of otitis media. Yesterday, my aunt told me that my uncle couldn't show his teeth anymore, couldn't puff his cheeks, or whistle. Seeing him in so much pain, my aunt immediately called a car to take him to the hospital. The doctor said that my uncle's facial paralysis was caused by the severe otitis media.Doctor's answer:
