Patient's question:
Unilateral facial paralysis is not suitable for this condition. After intravenous infusion, muscle injection, and acupuncture, there is no significant improvement on the affected right side of the face. What are the recommended treatment methods for facial paralysis?Doctor's answer:
Considering Bell's palsy, it is necessary to determine whether it is peripheral facial nerve palsy or central facial nerve palsy. Central facial nerve palsy retains forehead wrinkles, primarily manifesting as drooping below the eye fissure and inability to close the eyes. In terms of treatment, I believe it is essential to first identify the cause of sepsis and rule out intracranial inflammation, which can be assessed through cranial CT or MRI scans. Acupuncture treatment and neurotrophic medication have shown effectiveness. If there are no intracranial issues, treatment can focus solely on rigorous therapy. That's all for now. I wonder if this information brings you some relief. In addition to symptomatic treatment, patients with neurological conditions should also pay attention to maintaining a proper diet in daily life to aid in nutrient absorption. I hope the above answers are helpful to you. Thank you!
