Patient's question:
My dad has been riding his motorcycle to the market to buy groceries recently, even though the outdoor temperature is only 5 degrees Celsius. It's possible that he was hit by strong headwinds while driving and the low temperature caused his facial nerves to tighten when he woke up in the morning, making it seem like he couldn't move his face. I suggested taking him to the hospital, but I'm too afraid to do so, and I can't confirm whether he has Bell's palsy. So, could you please tell me what are the complications of Bell's palsy?Doctor's answer:
Bell's palsy is a very common disease, and there are many reasons that can cause it. The most common cause is neurological diseases. In daily life, it is important to have a proper diet, eat more fruits and vegetables, stay active, and boost your immunity. However, if symptoms similar to Bell's palsy reappear, it is necessary to go to the hospital for a thorough examination. If treatment is not received in a timely manner, it may lead to a series of systemic reactions.
