How long does it take for facial paralysis and to recover?

Patient's question:

Auntie suddenly had facial paralysis this spring, and her mouth became. It hasn't improved much even by winter. How long does it take for facial paralysis and a mouth to recover?

Doctor's answer:

After Bell's palsy, symptoms such as facial drooping and drooling may reappear. One side of the face may appear collapsed, and the person may be unable to raise their eyebrows, close their eyes, or perform other facial expressions. Active use of antiviral medications and neurotrophic drugs is necessary for treatment. Acupuncture and moxibustion can also be combined for excellent therapeutic effects. Generally, it takes about half a month to fully recover. In daily life, a light diet should be maintained to prevent catching a cold and to avoid exposure to cold.
