Patient's question:
My beautiful sister-in-law has recently fallen ill with a condition that is quite unattractive, Bell's palsy, and is currently undergoing treatment at home. She wants to start physical therapy. So, how is the treatment method for Bell's palsy physical therapy?Doctor's answer:
Bell's palsy is generally divided into central and peripheral types. Your condition should be considered peripheral facial palsy. The main treatments are antiviral, neurotrophic, and hormone therapies. After one week, acupuncture can be used. You can do exercises in front of a mirror, such as blowing a kiss with your eyes closed. As long as it is not excessive, these exercises can help prevent muscle atrophy. It is important to remember that Bell's palsy patients should not wash their faces with cold water, avoid direct wind, and should not stay in air-conditioned rooms for too long. These behaviors can help alleviate the condition.
