Patient's question:
At the age of 4, I suffered from facial paralysis, and my right cheek would twitch together.Doctor's answer:
Hello, Bell's palsy is caused by facial nerve inflammation. The main cause of onset is due to the face being exposed to cold wind, leading to spasm of the microvessels nourishing the facial nerve, resulting in local tissue ischemia and hypoxia. Some also believe it may be related to viral infection, while others suggest it could be an immune response.We know that Bell's palsy can cause significant harm to children. If it is not treated promptly or if the treatment method is incorrect, the condition progresses rapidly, which can bring great harm to the patient. Therefore, parents should pay close attention to their child's condition and seek timely medical treatment.
