What is the use of moxa on a face paralyzed person?

Patient's question:

I went to the hospital for a check-up a few weeks ago and was diagnosed with facial paralysis, and I'm still in the treatment stage. My friend said that moxa is effective. What is the use of moxa for facial paralysis?

Doctor's answer:

Hello, Bell's palsy can be examined with a facial nerve electromyography to determine if the injury is mild, moderate, or severe. Generally, mild injuries can be fully recovered within two months. If the injury is moderate, it may take two to eight months to fully recover. If the injury is severe, it may take about two years to fully recover, and it may even leave some residual sequelae.
