Patient's question:
Doctor, I have a younger brother who had a serious illness when he was very young. Later, his eyes would often twitch uncontrollably, and his speech became a bit unclear. When he went to the hospital for a thorough examination, they said he had mild facial paralysis. The doctor said this cannot be cured. Is this really true?Doctor's answer:
If you experience facial paralysis again, you must go to a local hospital for treatment without hesitation. When treating, if it is caused by a viral infection, antiviral drugs or neurotrophic drugs should be administered. After one week of treatment, acupuncture can be used to alleviate the symptoms locally. Local massage or applying ointment can also be used to promote the rapid recovery of facial paralysis.
