Patient's question:
Doctor, you and I are 35 years old this year. I have facial paralysis, but I haven't had it for a long time. Then I'm a bit worried that it might get worse. Why does facial paralysis interfere with taste?Doctor's answer:
If you have symptoms such as loss of taste, it may be due to facial nerve damage. In most cases of facial paralysis, complete recovery is possible. However, a small number of people may still have some incomplete recovery of nerve function. Therefore, it is recommended that you persist in treatments like acupuncture, which can help prevent the recurrence of taste loss. After all, traditional Chinese medicine treatments still have a certain effect on such conditions.
