How to treat facial paralysis with drooping corners of the mouth?

Patient's question:

My son has facial paralysis. I want to ask the doctor, if it's facial paralysis affecting the corners of the mouth, how can it be treated?

Doctor's answer:

Hormone shock therapy can also be used with vasodilators and neurotrophic drugs. Chinese medicine requires dispelling wind and cold, invigorating blood circulation, and resolving blood stasis. Additionally, acupuncture should be used to adjust and maintain treatment. Overall, good results can be achieved. Furthermore, patients should also avoid cold exposure and catching colds. The treatment of facial paralysis is divided into acute, subacute, and chronic stages. Acute facial paralysis lasts for 7-10 days, primarily using traditional Chinese herbal medicine to dispel wind and unblock meridians.
