I would like to ask how to treat central facial palsy.

Patient's question:

1 year ago got facial paralysis now both sides of the face are asymmetrical, mouth, eyes drool... Tried several methods, no central facial paralysis how to treat?

Doctor's answer:

Central facial palsy typically manifests as drooping of one corner of the mouth, drooling extending to one side of the tongue, and loss of lateral pain sensation. Different causes require different treatments. Cerebrovascular diseases are the most common cause. For cerebral infarction, treatments include the use of antiplatelet drugs, intravenous thrombolytic drugs, statins, drugs to stabilize recurring circulation, and drugs to thoroughly eliminate free radicals. For cerebral hemorrhage, medications such as controlling blood pressure and enhancing brain cell metabolism are necessary, and surgery may be required if needed.
