Patient's question:
Why did the problem lead to facial paralysis? Why did I get facial paralysis? Is there a problem with the facial nerves?Doctor's answer:
According to your description, Bell's palsy is caused by inflammation of the facial nerve, leading to symptoms such as the paralysis of one side of the face, muscle breakdown, and numbness. In addition to numbness, Bell's palsy is primarily treated through physical therapy, anti-inflammatory and anti-swelling measures, as well as nerve nutrition treatments. It is important to promptly visit a neurology department in the hospital to confirm whether it is indeed Bell's palsy. If it is, timely hospitalization and intravenous treatment should be administered to avoid affecting the later recovery process.
