Patient's question:
For three days, one side of the face can smile while the other side cannot. The hospital has prescribed a vitamin and a hormone medication, but the child cannot take the hormone medication because it is too bitter. What should we do? Is there any other way to supplement hormone-like foods?Doctor's answer:
Hello, the main treatment method is acupuncture. It can be adjusted according to the specific condition, such as warm needle acupuncture, electroacupuncture, and should also be combined with facial massage. Facial expression muscle rehabilitation training is an indispensable part of the treatment, mainly including exercises like raising the eyebrows, closing the eyes, wrinkling the nose, showing teeth, pursing the lips, and blowing out the cheeks.Medication treatment mainly involves taking neurotrophic drugs, such as ganglioside, vitamin B, and mouse nerve growth factor. During medication, avoid spicy and irritating foods like liquor, garlic, seafood, strong tea, and spicy hot pots. Apply a warm towel to the face 3-4 times a night, and avoid washing your face with cold water. In cold weather, pay attention to keeping your head warm. Eat more fresh vegetables, coarse grains, soy products, jujubes, lean meat, and other nutritious foods.
