The treatment for facial paralysis is saltwater?

Patient's question:

Who knows if I will also become a face paralysis one day, but I heard from the old people that there is a folk remedy to treat it. Is the folk remedy for treating face paralysis salt water?

Doctor's answer:

First, the so-called life treatment for facial paralysis mentioned by others is unreliable. Second, salt water does not have any therapeutic effect on facial paralysis. Third, facial paralysis is divided into two major categories: peripheral facial paralysis caused by facial nerve inflammation and central facial paralysis. Some types of facial paralysis can be treated. For example, if it is mild peripheral facial paralysis caused by facial nerve inflammation, it may even heal on its own without treatment. However, if it is central facial paralysis, the treatment outcome is not very ideal. Since you do not have facial paralysis right now, there is no need to treat it at this time. Additionally, it is also not possible to implement early prevention measures.
