Can Bell's palsy be treated?

Patient's question:

I was diagnosed with facial paralysis two months ago. I feel that the treatment hasn't been very effective. Can facial paralysis be cured?

Doctor's answer:

This type of facial paralysis is generally treatable, but it is essential to adhere to standardized treatment. Most cases of facial paralysis are based on conditions such as facial neuritis or facial nerve palsy. In terms of treatment, you can choose to visit a traditional Chinese medicine hospital for acupuncture to help unblock meridians. Additionally, you can also take oral medications that support nerve nutrition, following the doctor's advice for specific medication use. During the treatment period, it is important to wear a mask to avoid catching cold from drafts.
