Patient's question:
Since suffering from facial paralysis, my father hasn't been in a good mood, and he hasn't been able to eat much. I'd like to consult a doctor about what foods to avoid with facial paralysis.Doctor's answer:
Facial paralysis is often divided into central facial paralysis and peripheral facial paralysis. From the perspective of traditional Chinese medicine, both types of facial paralysis are believed to be caused by poor blood and Qi circulation. Therefore, patients with this condition are advised not to eat foods high in fat, avoid spicy, greasy foods, and should not smoke or drink beer. It is recommended to consume more vegetables and fruits appropriately, and acupuncture treatment can be used as a suitable method.
