Patient's question:
I have had facial paralysis for more than three months now. However, I have undergone acupuncture and massage treatments, but I still feel that one side of my face is not straight. Then I think this is already a post-stroke complication of facial paralysis. I would like to ask, what should I do about post-stroke complications of facial paralysis?Doctor's answer:
If you suffer from facial paralysis and then experience symptoms such as muscle atrophy or drooling, you can first use acupuncture and massage to alleviate the condition. You can also apply many blood-activating and blood-stasis-dispersing ointments locally. During treatment, it is essential to protect against wind and rain to prevent cold wind from directly blowing on your face, which may worsen the condition. Pay close attention to this. Actively participate in physical exercise to regulate physical and mental health, and maintain personal hygiene.
