What is viral facial paralysis?

Patient's question:

My own face feels particularly uncomfortable. I have a viral infection of the face, but now I don't know why it caused facial paralysis. I don't know how to treat this. Is there any good effect?

Doctor's answer:

Viral facial paralysis, also known as Bell's palsy, is usually caused by a viral infection of the facial nerve. If treated effectively within a week, it can stabilize, but without treatment within a week, it is often difficult to save and requires chronic and long-term treatment. You have already undergone effective treatment and have entered the chronic recovery phase. Complete recovery cannot be rushed. The main treatment method during the chronic phase is Traditional Chinese Medicine and acupuncture, which gradually and completely recovers. The recovery time cannot be confirmed.
