How to check for facial paralysis?

Patient's question:

I don't know what's going on, my husband has facial paralysis. He is 28 years old. I want to understand how to examine facial paralysis carefully?

Doctor's answer:

According to the situation you described, facial paralysis is generally caused by facial nerve inflammation, which is primarily due to a viral infection. Therefore, it is recommended that patients pay close attention to rest and use antiviral medications for symptomatic treatment, such as acyclovir. Careful observation is also necessary, and some nerve-nourishing and blood-activating herbs should be used for treatment. In some cases, it may be necessary to undergo acupuncture or other physical therapy treatments.
