Is applying traditional Chinese herbal heat compresses effective for facial paralysis?

Patient's question:

On May 10th, I was diagnosed with shingles, which has now been cured, but the facial paralysis has not yet recovered.

Doctor's answer:

Hello, according to what you mentioned, in this case, since the rash has not appeared, if the viral load in the body is high, it could be considered as shingles. This is because you have actively applied antiviral medication, which is why the rash has not manifested well. After confirmation, apply antiviral and analgesic medications for treatment, and this should be fine.
