Patient's question:
Doctor, you and I are 35 years old this year. I have facial paralysis, but I haven't had it for a long time. Then I'm a bit worried that it might get worse. Why does facial paralysis interfere with taste?Doctor's answer:
If you have symptoms such as loss of taste, it may be due to facial nerve damage. In most cases of facial paralysis, complete recovery is possible. However, for a small number of people, some nerve functions may not fully recover. Therefore, it is recommended that you persist in treatments like acupuncture, which can help prevent the recurrence of taste loss. After all, traditional Chinese medicine methods still have a certain effect on such conditions.
