Patient's question:
My uncle was involved in a very frustrating traffic accident. He was unconscious in the hospital for more than half a year. After waking up, he developed facial paralysis. Can someone with facial paralysis wash their hair?Doctor's answer:
You can wash your hair. Washing your hair will never alleviate the symptoms of facial paralysis, and it has no adverse effects on the complete recovery of the condition. Washing your hair, while maintaining a clean head, can actually be beneficial for the complete recovery of the condition. It is recommended that patients always maintain a calm mood, avoid emotional shocks, prevent head injuries, do not drink beer, do not smoke, ensure sufficient deep sleep, avoid staying up late, drink more hot water, and prevent constipation.
