Patient's question:
Doctor, I would like to consult a few things. My father suddenly had his mouth today, it's facial paralysis. How can it be completely cured? Moreover, he's incontinence of urine and feces, and has difficulty moving. After all, my father is quite old, so we'd like to consult a few things. For a situation like my father's, what specific treatment methods should we adopt?Doctor's answer:
Based on the symptoms you described, the disease causing your father's symptoms is more likely to be a stroke rather than simple facial paralysis. This is because he not only has facial paralysis symptoms but also incontinence of urine and feces, as well as limb dysfunction. Therefore, it is recommended that you take your father to the hospital as soon as possible for a thorough MRI examination to confirm the diagnosis and receive early treatment. If it is a stroke that has caused these symptoms, it is necessary to start blood circulation promotion, antiplatelet, and anticoagulant treatment as soon as possible.
