Patient's question:
My father is already 51 years old. That morning, while he was exercising, he had a facial paralysis. Later, he went to a traditional Chinese medicine doctor for acupuncture treatment. However, it has been two months now, and he still hasn't recovered. Hello, your facial paralysis hasn't been treated for two months, what should I do?Doctor's answer:
Hello, the cause of facial paralysis is directly related to factors such as exposure to cold, overexertion, physical weakness, and external wind-cold. Early treatment can involve neurotrophic drugs, hormone drugs, and other symptomatic treatments. Later-stage treatment may consider acupuncture, physical therapy, massage, traditional Chinese medicine differentiation and conditioning, promoting blood circulation and removing blood stasis to unblock meridians, etc. It is recommended to visit the traditional Chinese medicine department of a nearby hospital and receive differentiation and conditioning treatment under the guidance of a doctor.
