Can a person with facial paralysis take traditional Chinese medicine?

Patient's question:

I am 36 years old. Recently, after going to bed, I noticed that my mouth corner suddenly dropped. I went to the hospital and they said it was facial paralysis. They mentioned that injections are needed. I would like to know if it is possible to treat facial paralysis with traditional Chinese medicine?

Doctor's answer:

Bell's palsy can be treated with traditional Chinese medicine, and the effectiveness of this treatment has no significant impact. It also helps the body recover quite well. Bell's palsy is primarily caused by external stimuli, but in daily life, it is still important to pay attention and avoid getting angry or being exposed to wind on the face. With the combination of traditional Chinese medicine for regulation and recovery at home, the chances of recovery are still very high.
