How long does it take for a Bell's palsy to recover the fastest?

Patient's question:

I recently got Bell's palsy and it's very painful. I want to ask, what is the fastest recovery time for Bell's palsy?

Doctor's answer:

This type of facial paralysis is usually caused by inflammation and damage to the facial nerve, resulting in a typical treatment duration of about 2 to 3 weeks. During treatment, it is essential to protect the face from cold, and when going out, you can wear a mask and hat to prevent facial exposure to cold wind. In daily life, pay attention to eating more vitamin-rich foods, such as foods rich in gamma-oryzanol, which helps in the complete recovery of nerve function.
