Patient's question:
It's very hot in summer, and I'm naturally sensitive to heat. So, I often drink beer and stay in the air-conditioning. I also stay up late watching sports. The other day, it was so hot that I didn't cover up while taking a nap. When I woke up in the morning, my face was stiff, and I was drooling. The doctor said it was caused by catching a cold, leading to facial paralysis. Which hospital is the best for treating facial paralysis?Doctor's answer:
There are many hospitals that treat facial paralysis, and the neurology department of a comprehensive tertiary hospital with high evaluation has a very good effect on treating facial paralysis. This is mainly because when a person's immunity is low, exposure to wind or viral infection may lead to the recurrence of facial paralysis. During the acute phase of facial paralysis treatment, the main focus is on promoting the resolution of local inflammatory edema, which can include nerve nutrition therapy and can be combined with traditional Chinese medicine acupuncture treatment by the doctor.
