Patient's question:
I have had facial paralysis for more than two weeks. It's just that my mouth is a bit crooked, and there is nothing else that feels uncomfortable. How long does mild facial paralysis take to fully recover?Doctor's answer:
Middle-aged male, suffered from facial nerve palsy two weeks ago, which is considered to be directly related to factors such as wind, cold, and chill exposure on the face. Currently, if only the mouth droops without other symptoms, but the onset has already been two weeks, it is considered that the optimal treatment period has been missed. Therefore, it is recommended to take local cold prevention and avoid catching a cold, then administer drugs for blood circulation promotion and nerve nutrition. Additionally, acupuncture and physiotherapy should be combined for treatment. Generally, there will be some effect. It is advised to actively seek treatment to prevent interference with the complete recovery of the nerve.
