Patient's question:
I am a postpartum woman. Three months after giving birth, my face has become a bit asymmetrical, and my mouth is a bit affected. I often feel numbness on my face without pain. I have been getting acupuncture for over ten days. Can I take a break for a few days in the middle?Doctor's answer:
In supply, there is usually a rest period of 1 to 3 months. During this period, attention should be paid to maintaining health, protecting the body, and nourishing it to ensure a complete recovery. Based on your symptoms, this may be facial paralysis, which is an inflammation of the facial structure. The main symptoms include numbness on one side of the face, drooping mouth corners, and abnormal eye closure. The usual treatment methods are acupuncture and facial therapy. It is generally recommended to follow a course of treatment and not stop. Wishing the patient a speedy recovery and good health!
