The child was born prematurely weighing 3 jin 6 liang (approximately 6.6 pounds), due to pregnancy-induced hypertension syndrome. At 3 years old, the child still cannot walk, but the cerebellum development is normal. The child has strabismus in their eyes, and still drools when they smile. The child suffered from hard swelling at birth. When will the child be able to walk? Patient age

Doctor's answer:

Hello. Your symptoms are typical of facial paralysis. The symptoms of facial paralysis include the disappearance of forehead wrinkles, widened eye fissures, flattened nasolabial folds, and drooping corners of the mouth. During smiling or showing teeth, the corners of the mouth droop and the face becomes. You cannot perform actions such as wrinkling your forehead, frowning, closing your eyes, blowing out air, or pouting. When blowing out your cheeks or whistling, you may leak air. When eating, food residue often gets stuck between your teeth and cheeks, and saliva frequently drips from that side.
