Patient's question:
Recently, I don't know why I can't sleep, which greatly affects my work efficiency. My friend recommended checking with the neurology department. How is facial muscle atrophy treated?Doctor's answer:
The swelling of facial muscles reappears due to long-term brain stroke affecting the facial nerve function, leading to the loss of facial nerve nutrition function. As a result, the facial muscles cannot move normally, causing the re-emergence of stroke-like symptoms. Since the patient has been bedridden for a long time, there are no special treatment methods available. Therefore, oral neurotrophic drugs can be taken first to alleviate the condition. During daily care, it is important to use a warm towel to wipe the face and maintain cleanliness and hygiene at all times.
