What are the best treatments for facial paralysis?

Patient's question:

My grandmother's eyes suddenly became crooked, and I suspect it might be facial paralysis. What is the best treatment for facial paralysis in general?

Doctor's answer:

After the recurrence of facial paralysis, some traditional Chinese medicine and acupuncture methods can be used for treatment. Traditional Chinese medicine will provide some herbs that help to relieve wind, clear heat, and activate blood circulation to implement additional treatment. For some patients whose facial nerve edema decreases after one week, acupuncture treatment can be given to promote the recovery of muscles and nerves. At the same time, comprehensive treatments such as acupoint patch application and intradermal needles can also be used, which are very helpful for the complete recovery of facial paralysis.
