Patient's question:
Recently I found that I have facial paralysis, which interferes with my life every day. Hello, how is facial paralysis treated?Doctor's answer:
Hello:It is a pleasure to serve you. Based on the situation you described, Bell's palsy is a form of facial nerve inflammation, often caused by viral infections, exposure to cold, drafts, or overexertion. The main symptoms include facial drooping and incomplete eyelid closure. Antiviral medications, nerve-nourishing supplements, and corticosteroids can be used for treatment, along with acupuncture and cold compress therapy. Full recovery is usually achieved within 3 months. During this period, it is important to rest well, avoid extremely cold or greasy foods, and take care to prevent cold exposure. Wishing you a speedy recovery!
