Patient's question:
Grandma is getting older and has a bit of facial paralysis. Others say that methylcobalamin treats facial paralysis. Does methylcobalamin treat facial paralysis?Doctor's answer:
This medication is effective for facial paralysis. However, it is necessary to use hormones and antiviral drugs in adequate amounts simultaneously. The effect is much better. At the same time, combining it with physical therapy and acupuncture stimulation of acupoints is also effective. Capsules are okay, but tablets are slightly less effective. Additionally, light stimulation, such as from computers and TVs, as well as sterilizing ultraviolet light, should be increased. Local cold compresses or massage, along with regular functional exercises, are beneficial for recovery.
