What are the precautions to take when a person with facial paralysis sleeps?

Patient's question:

In our place, there is an old grandpa, and he now has facial paralysis. Hello, what are the precautions to take when sleeping with facial paralysis?

Doctor's answer:

Always maintain a supply of indoor air with suitable temperature and humidity, and avoid exposure to wind and cold. Generally, there are no special recommendations, but try not to press on the facial paralysis area, as this can worsen blood circulation. Take good preventive measures against cold, such as wearing a mask with the wind. Adjust your diet and avoid spicy, irritating, and allergenic foods. The main focus should be on adjusting your mental state, with emotional support from family members to help the patient maintain an optimistic attitude and actively treat the disease.
