Patient's question:
Hello, I would like to ask when is the best treatment for facial paralysis? How long does it take to heal? I am very worried and hope the doctor can reply as soon as possible!Doctor's answer:
Your facial paralysis treatment with traditional Chinese medicine primarily involves acupuncture combined with moxibustion and electroacupuncture. The comprehensive evaluation needs to consider the specific extent of the affected area and the individual's subjective feelings. Different areas and symptom severity require different electroacupuncture treatments. The duration of treatment also depends on the individual's physical condition and the extent of recovery. For severe cases, it is necessary to persist for at least half a month to see significant results! For mild facial paralysis, it generally takes about a week, while severe cases may take 1-2 months. It is important to persist, as leaving it untreated can lead to lingering sequelae, making it more difficult to treat.
