What should be paid attention to during the recovery period of facial paralysis?

Patient's question:

Feeling cold on the face caused facial paralysis, and I am currently receiving treatment from a traditional Chinese medicine practitioner. What should I pay attention to during the recovery period of facial paralysis?

Doctor's answer:

During the recovery period of Bell's palsy, it is important to pay close attention to rest and ensure adequate deep sleep. Appropriate physical exercises should be implemented to enhance the patient's resistance. In addition to preventing cold exposure and protecting the face from cooling, a mask should be worn when going out, and cold water should not be used for face washing. Consume plenty of light and nutritious foods during bowel movements, avoiding excessively cold items, especially many chilled foods. The above suggestions can serve as a reference.
