Patient's question:
My mother-in-law doesn't live with us. Last month, she caught a cold while taking a nap by blowing cold air, which led to facial paralysis. In the recent days, we are planning to visit her, but we don't know what to bring for her. We are worried that the wrong purchase might not be beneficial for her recovery. Could you please advise us first?Hello, what should a person with facial paralysis eat?
Doctor's answer:
According to your description and the doctor's advice, it is recommended to go to the hospital for a brain CT scan to rule out any organic inflammation in the brain. Then, based on the test results, the treatment plan can be confirmed. If there is no organic inflammation in the brain, it is advisable to use hydralazine combined with traditional Chinese medicine therapy, such as acupuncture and moxibustion. If you eat fruits, it is recommended to consume more fruits rich in vitamins, such as apples, kiwis, oranges, and dried fruits, etc. The above is advice on this issue, and it is hoped that it will be helpful to you.
