Patient's question:
Uncle's wife has been having frequent dizziness lately. She already has high blood pressure, and she often feels twitching in her face. Is this a symptom of facial paralysis?Doctor's answer:
Only when there is a sensation of twitching in the face is it not the main symptom of facial paralysis. Facial paralysis is characterized by the collapse of muscles on one side of the face, primarily manifested as crooked mouth corners. Alternatively, there may be pain behind the ear. If it is only facial twitching, you can take some sedative drugs for treatment, and at the same time, you can also go to a traditional Chinese medicine hospital for acupuncture treatment. Acupuncture has a good therapeutic effect on facial muscle spasms.
