Can people with facial paralysis have sex life?

Patient's question:

I have been dealing with facial paralysis for over two months now, and my face still often feels numb. Can someone with facial paralysis have sex life?

Doctor's answer:

Facial paralysis can still engage in sexual activity, but it is important to pay attention not to overexert. Facial paralysis is a neurological condition caused by exposure to cold wind, cooling down, or excessive mental stress. You can visit a formal neurology department for further examination. You can take some neurological medications. When you have time, use a hot towel or a hot water bag for local cold compresses to improve blood circulation, which can help stabilize the condition of facial paralysis.
