Patient's question:
My facial expression has remained the same for over a year, which has led to me having a bit of facial paralysis now. Hello, what should I do if I have facial paralysis?Doctor's answer:
Facial paralysis is generally caused by exposure to cold and blockage of meridians within the body. If you have facial paralysis, the key to treatment lies in the acute phase. During this phase, timely acupuncture and physiotherapy are essential. In Western medicine, many neurotrophic drugs are primarily used, combined with traditional Chinese medicine's muscle relaxant and blood-activating medications for treatment. Your condition appears to be chronic or a post-stroke sequelae, and the treatment effect may not be very good.
