Doctor's answer:

1. Advocate the early use of a full course of corticosteroid hormones in the acute phase, which can be administered intravenously as dexamethasone or orally as prednisone, for 5-7 consecutive days, followed by a gradual increase in dosage over the next 7-10 days. If there is clear evidence of viral infection, antiviral drugs can be used concurrently;
2. B-complex vitamins can promote the complete recovery of nerve myelin, such as vitamin B1 and B12;
3. If available in your region, clonidine can be used. This medication can stabilize local blood circulation by increasing muscle tone;
4. In the acute phase of physical therapy, ultrashortwave diathermy, infrared irradiation, or local cold application near the stylomastoid foramen can be performed to help stabilize local blood circulation.
