Patient's question:
31 Two months ago, it was carefully checked that I suffered from facial paralysis. Now my face is stiff and I cannot make expressions, move like blinking, closing my eyes, and the symptom of uncontrollable drooling reappears. Is this very serious for facial paralysis? Can it be cured?Doctor's answer:
Bell's palsy is primarily a disorder of facial nerve paralysis and is also a major feature of epilepsy. It is characterized by dysfunction of the facial expression muscle group, with clinical manifestations such as crooked mouth corners, incomplete eyelid closure, disappearance of nasolabial folds, and loss of facial movement function on the affected side. As a result, you may experience facial paralysis and difficulty with facial expression.When suffering from Bell's palsy, it is important to seek medical treatment early for systematic care. If left untreated for a long time, the facial nerve will be affected, and symptoms such as eye (misaligned eyes) and crooked mouth will become increasingly severe. It is recommended to use traditional Chinese medicine acupuncture methods for treatment.
