Patient's question:
Is there the best treatment plan for facial paralysis? Currently, the cause of facial paralysis is being treated with injections in the hospital. It has slightly improved, but the effect doesn't seem very good.Doctor's answer:
Hello, the treatment plan for Bell's palsy needs to be diagnosed based on the patient's condition, considering the severity of the illness, medical history, and onset time. The main treatment methods include traditional Chinese medicine (TCM) herbal decoctions that promote blood circulation, resolve stagnation, and disperse blood clots, which can be taken orally or as oral Chinese patent medicine. Additionally, nerve nutrition through oral medication and injections is recommended, combined with acupuncture and physiotherapy. Generally, it takes 3 to 4 weeks for gradual recovery.
