Patient's question:
My grandfather is 64 years old this year, and he has always been quite healthy. Just a few months ago, while my grandfather was preparing to cut grass by the roadside for the cows, he accidentally fell. At the time, there wasn't much of a problem, but during dinner that night, he suddenly noticed that the left side of his face was paralyzed. What is the reason for my grandfather's left facial paralysis?Doctor's answer:
Hello, based on the situation you described, it appears that the grandfather you mentioned has left-sided facial paralysis, which is a relatively common condition in clinical diagnosis within the field of neurology. This is a type of facial nerve paralysis caused by peripheral neuritis. Clinically, it manifests as the inability to close the eye on the affected side, puffed cheeks, or whistling. It is recommended that you start hormone treatment as soon as possible, while also combining it with traditional Chinese medicine and acupuncture for treatment. Gradually, the symptoms will gradually improve.
