Patient's question:
Hello, I am 35 years old, male. What is the meaning of facial paralysis? I went to the hospital, and the doctor said I have facial paralysis.Doctor's answer:
If you have facial paralysis, it may be caused by a viral infection that affects the facial nerve. This condition often occurs 2-3 weeks after a viral cold. In this case, it is important to use antiviral medications for treatment as soon as possible. Additionally, medications that support peripheral nerve nutrition, such as cobalamin tablets and B vitamins, can be used. Facial paralysis can also be treated with traditional Chinese medicine acupuncture, which is quite effective.Regulate your physical and mental health, maintain personal hygiene, and avoid bacterial infections due to weakened immunity.
