Patient's question:
It has been about two years since I have had facial paralysis. When it first started, I took Chinese herbal medicine and used moxa sticks to steam my face. The effect was not very good after 5-6 months. After that, I stopped going for treatment and continued using moxa sticks to steam my face. Now, my face is to the right, and my eyes are of different sizes. It is very noticeable when I pout. Can it still be cured?Doctor's answer:
Considering you are 22, relatively young, and the facial paralysis is likely caused by facial nerve palsy, corticosteroids can be administered. Is it tilted to the right? You can undergo a prednisone shock treatment, drink plenty of water, get adequate rest, enhance nutrition, and stay warm. The above suggestions are for the question "Facial paralysis has been present for two years. At the beginning, traditional Chinese medicine was taken along with moxa sticks applied to the face for fumigation." I hope this helps. Wishing you good health!
