Patient's question:
My sister is 39 years old now and has facial paralysis. She wants to use a plaster, is it effective to use a plaster for facial paralysis?Doctor's answer:
Bell's palsy is a common neurological disorder in clinical diagnosis, caused by nerve damage due to various reasons such as cerebrovascular diseases suppressing nerves and anesthetic effects. Applying ointments that promote blood circulation, relieve muscle stiffness, dispel wind, and eliminate dampness to the affected area can directly penetrate the lesion, making it valuable for treating Bell's palsy, and it also yields very effective results. If these topical medications are taken together with neurotrophic drugs and combined with acupuncture, physical therapy, and massage, the treatment effect is even better.
