Patient's question:
I was diagnosed with facial paralysis a month ago, but I thought it was just a bit stiff in facial expressions and there were no other problems, and it didn't affect other parts of my body. I felt that there was no need for treatment, but I was also worried about potential harm. Hello, what are the dangers of facial paralysis?Doctor's answer:
If it's facial paralysis, there are central facial palsies, and the rest are peripheral facial palsies. In general, for this condition, it's recommended to undergo a head CT for a thorough examination to rule out central issues. If there are no problems, it can be resolved through acupuncture and treatment. However, during the first week, it's essential to pay attention to implementing anti-infection and neurotrophic treatment. Then, acupuncture can be used for health maintenance. In most cases, it can be fully recovered, mainly because of immune enhancement. This is something that must be noted.
