Why can't people with facial paralysis smoke?

Patient's question:

We know that smoking is harmful to the body and has no benefits. My brother is 47 years old and loves to smoke when he is free. Now, besides facial paralysis, can he smoke a very small amount?

Doctor's answer:

Facial paralysis refers to the dysfunction of the facial nerve and the face. The cause of facial paralysis is facial nerve dysfunction. There are many factors that can cause facial paralysis, including diseases such as otitis media or meningitis. Smoking can alleviate primary conditions like otitis media, thereby alleviating secondary "facial paralysis" situations. From this point, it can be seen that smoking has a negative impact on the health recovery of facial paralysis patients. Wishing the patients a speedy recovery!
