Patient's question:
Today the teacher didn't come for the make-up class. Later, I heard from the principal that the teacher is sick, with one eyelid closed and the corner of the mouth occasionally twitching slightly to the right! I would like to ask what kind of tests are needed for facial paralysis?Doctor's answer:
Clinical diagnosis of diseases should be based on the current condition of the patient seeking consultation for treatment. Clinical diagnosis should consider the possibility of needing combined clinical diagnosis and the severity of the condition. If the clinical diagnosis of the disease is severe, it may be possible to treat the disease in the hospital. If it constitutes serious sequelae, it is recommended to combine clinical diagnosis and use traditional Chinese medicine acupuncture and moxibustion treatment. The treatment cycle generally needs about half a month, and the specific duration still needs to be determined based on the therapeutic effect of the disease. Based on your description, the current clinical diagnosis of the disease is not severe, and it can be treated with a short-term hospital stay for close observation. Once the condition stabilizes, further expansion can be considered for outpatient follow-up treatment. It is still recommended to consult the advice of the treating physician.
