Patient's question:
My second aunt got facial paralysis. Her face looks very painful. How long does the treatment for facial paralysis take?Doctor's answer:
If after careful examination it is considered that there is facial nerve palsy, in this case, it should be considered to actively use acupuncture and moxibustion therapy, as well as oral administration of traditional Chinese medicine, to promote a thorough recovery. At the same time, oral neurotrophic drugs can be considered, such as vitamin B and Ganoderma lucidum, for treatment. If there is a viral infection, antiviral drugs can be considered for treatment, which will be much more effective. It is important to prevent the head from being exposed to cold wind and cold in daily life. Generally, the vast majority can recover completely within three months.
