Patient's question:
On the morning of the first day of the Chinese New Year, I suddenly noticed that my brother-in-law's wife's mouth was crooked. She didn't even dare to go to work. I quickly went to see a doctor. The doctor said she had facial paralysis, which is why it happened. She wants to know how long it will take for the illness to get better and for the facial nerve inflammation to subside.Doctor's answer:
Currently, this condition will allow smiling once complete recovery is achieved. For your relative's situation, it is primarily considered a manifestation of facial nerve palsy, which can be completely cured. The pathological changes during the acute recurrence phase require the use of intravenous antibiotics. During the remission phase, traditional Chinese medicine therapies can be employed to promote recovery. It is essential to prevent cold exposure and take protective measures, and the condition will then be cured. Wishing the patient a speedy recovery and good health!
