Patient's question:
Doctor, I am 57 years old, and I have had facial paralysis for over 6 years. When I first got sick, I was treated in the hospital for several months. Medication and acupuncture did not work well. The side effects of hormone drugs were too severe. I gained a lot of weight instantly, and I also developed serious sequelae. My eyes can't close properly, my mouth is, my eyes are slanted, and I drool when eating dinner. How can facial paralysis sequelae be treated?Doctor's answer:
Through your description, you are suffering from post-stroke sequelae of facial nerve palsy. This condition is primarily based on maximizing the recovery of motor function, preventing wind and cold, and avoiding facial cooling. It is recommended that you stay away from computers, televisions, and ultraviolet exposure. Avoid spicy and irritating foods, and opt for a light diet with fresh vegetables and fruits. Always maintain a cheerful mood. Actively participate in physical exercise to regulate physical and mental health, and maintain personal hygiene.
