Patient's question:
I have one side of my face sinking, which looks particularly bad. Can Bell's palsy be cured?Doctor's answer:
Post-stroke facial paralysis generally refers to cases where the duration of facial paralysis is less than 3 months, where the condition worsens due to improper treatment or where multiple different treatments have been tried without full recovery. Specific symptoms include the inability to raise the eyebrows or weak eyebrow movement, asymmetry of the eyes or drooping upper eyelids, incorrect upward movement of the corners of the mouth when raising the eyebrows, twitching of the corners of the mouth when closing the eyes, small eyes when pouting, shallow nasolabial folds, facial stiffness, difficulty swallowing, tearing, and other issues. These conditions bring inconvenience to the patient's daily life and psychological discomfort.
