Patient's question:
Yesterday the wind outside was too strong, it blew me into facial paralysis. I want to understand, how long does mild facial paralysis take to heal?Doctor's answer:
Hello! Bell's palsy is facial nerve palsy. This condition poses a threat to the nerves, and a complete recovery is relatively slow. In some severe cases, it may leave behind sequelae. It is recommended to pay attention to preventing cold exposure, regularly applying massage therapy, and using physiotherapy. Medications that promote blood circulation, resolve blood stasis, and nourish the nerves should be used in combination for treatment. It's hard to say how long it will take to recover, depending on individual recovery progress and treatment outcomes. Mild cases generally recover within half a month, but it is essential to pay attention to preventing cold exposure and wearing a mask.
