Patient's question:
Recently, I've been very busy with training, always working and overtime, and not getting much rest. Over the past few days, I've noticed that I often experience recurring facial spasms. Since I've had a history of understanding that my distress could lead to facial paralysis, I want to ask if facial spasms are a precursor to facial paralysis?Doctor's answer:
If there is such a situation, please pay attention. First, go to the hospital for a thorough examination, especially for important parts such as the nervous system and brain. Facial twitching may only be caused by poor rest or excessive tension, but it could also be a sign of repeated problems in the brain or nervous system. Therefore, it is essential to have a systematic check-up at the hospital. If there are no major issues, it is also important to maintain good daily routines and avoid constantly putting yourself in a state of tension.
