Patient's question:
Hello doctor, can facial paralysis be cured? Is it generally treated with traditional Chinese medicine or Western medicine?Doctor's answer:
If the peripheral facial palsy recurs and becomes relatively obvious, you can go to the neurology outpatient department for a detailed examination. An MRI of the head can help rule out brain-related issues. Many treatments can be used. Western medicine can be used to nourish the nerves, and acupuncture and physiotherapy should be used for a long time to stabilize the symptoms. The effect of traditional Chinese medicine is not particularly significant. Western medicine is much more effective. Finally, I wish you a speedy recovery.
