How to treat facial paralysis in infants?

Patient's question:

The child of the neighbor was found to have facial paralysis at the hospital. There is a question I want to ask: How should pediatric facial paralysis be treated? After all, no one can bear to see the child suffer. Regardless of the situation, treatment must be given to the child. If you take the child to a professional hospital for treatment, how much will it cost approximately?

Doctor's answer:

The treatment plan for infant facial paralysis is the same as for adults. It is recommended to detect and treat it early. The two weeks before the onset are the best time for treatment. Generally, medication combined with acupuncture and electrotherapy is used. If the facial paralysis is mild, it can be relieved. For moderate to severe facial paralysis, any residual sequelae will also be relatively mild. It is recommended to seek treatment at a professional hospital. The cost depends on the hospital's level and regional fee differences, as well as the percentage of prepayment, which can vary.
