Patient's question:
I have facial neuritis, and it always feels a bit painful there. I want to take medicine to relieve it. What medicine is used for facial neuritis?Doctor's answer:
Facial nerve palsy, caused by a viral infection or exposure to wind and cold during sweating, leads to facial muscle atrophy and paralysis. Treatment should be based on the specific cause, selecting antiviral and nerve-nourishing medications. Additionally, acupuncture, massage, topical medications, and other therapies should be combined. If the pain is particularly severe, oral nerve-nourishing and blood-activating medications are necessary. It is also important to relax and focus, avoiding stimulating foods.
