Patient's question:
Recently, I have been experiencing dizziness frequently, and I also get very tired easily and can't do any work. This has been a great concern for my family, so I specifically came here to consult about this situation. Could you please tell me how to treat facial paralysis?Doctor's answer:
Guidance: Traditional Chinese Medicine believes that facial paralysis is often caused by empty meridians, the rampant invasion of wind-cold pathogens, or wind-heat, wind-phlegm, or blood stasis stagnating the meridians, leading to disharmony of qi and blood, resulting in relaxation and lack of contraction of muscles and tendons. For the treatment of post-stroke facial paralysis, facial muscle spasms, and trigeminal neuralgia, traditional methods include acupuncture, applying topical medications, cupping therapy, excision, fire needle therapy, electroacupuncture, physical therapy, nasal decongestants, manual therapy, facial anesthetic drugs, and some folk remedies such as applying eel blood.
