Patient's question:
I'm only 32 years old. I woke up one morning, and half of my face was paralyzed. There were no symptoms beforehand. Experts, how is facial paralysis actually caused? Can it be cured?Doctor's answer:
Causes of Bell's Palsy:1. The blood vessels that supply nutrients to the facial nerves are affected by cold wind or cold, leading to spasm, which causes ischemia, edema, and compression of the nerve tissue, resulting in the disease.
2. Most patients experience cold wind, cold water, or other stimuli on the affected side of the head before the onset of the disease, such as using a fan or exposure to cold water.
3. A small number of patients show signs of viral infection before or after the onset of the disease, commonly suffering from symptoms like colds or ear infections.
