Of course, facial paralysis is a disease. A classmate had one before. It is a disease characterized by motor dysfunction of facial expression muscles. It is a common and frequently-occurring disease and is not limited by age. The general symptom is that the mouth and eyes are skewed, and patients often can't even do the most basic actions such as raising eyebrows, closing their eyes and bulging their mouths. The cause of facial paralysis is facial stroke, which leads to poor facial blood circulation. Causes facial ischemia, and hypoxia causes facial nerve paralysis, inflammation and even necrosis. Make facial muscles slack and droop, out of control of the brain. People mistakenly think that their mouths and eyes are skewed.

Facial paralysis caused by facial neuritis is mostly unilateral, and the right side is more common. When most patients wash their faces and gargle in the morning, they often find that one cheek is invalid and their mouth is askew.

Peripheral facial neuritis caused by trauma can be divided into early-onset (facial paralysis immediately after injury) and late-onset (facial paralysis 5-7 days after injury). According to the occurrence of facial paralysis after injury, the degree of facial nerve injury can be evaluated and the prognosis can be judged.

Traditional Chinese medicine believes that facial paralysis is mostly caused by pulse deficiency, wind-cold invasion, or wind-heat, wind phlegm and blood stasis blocking meridians, which leads to muscle relaxation. If you pay attention to Chinese medicine and acupuncture in the early stage, the effect will be good. Western medicine advocates early application of glucocorticoid and drugs such as improving blood circulation, nourishing nerves and antivirus. However, if the hormone is used too much, it will produce many adverse reactions and side effects, making people fat and swollen, water and sodium retention, decreased immunity and slow recovery.

People often call a cold, expressionless person facial paralysis, but it's totally different. Facial paralysis usually only occurs on one side, and the whole face will look asymmetrical. My classmate took Chinese medicine for a long time to be cured, so be sure to pay more attention.
