Patient's question:
My wife previously had facial paralysis, which was later treated with acupuncture. Now, it can be said that she is basically recovered. However, we are very concerned about a recurrence, so I am here to consult with you, Doctor. Will facial paralysis recur? What are your views?Doctor's answer:
Facial paralysis has a certain degree of recurrence because it is caused by facial neuritis, which can lead to re-infection. If facial neuritis occurs again, it may easily result in facial paralysis. In daily life, it is important to pay attention to a healthy lifestyle, engage in appropriate physical exercise to strengthen the body, and prevent re-infection. Additionally, it is necessary to avoid facial exposure to cold and wear masks when going out, which can help prevent facial neuritis to some extent.
