In facial paralysis<\/strong>, the nerve that goes to the muscles of the face has been affected or damaged.\u00a0Occasionally, a viral infection or measles can cause paralysis of the face, but usually, the cause is unclear.\u00a0For the most part, facial paralysis goes away after a while.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

If the nerve that goes to the muscles of the face is affected or injured, for example, it is difficult to speak and smile.\u00a0The paralysis may be due to a viral infection or a\u00a0Velcro infection\u00a0after a\u00a0tick bite.\u00a0But most often the cause is unclear and the damage is called Bell’s paresis or peripheral facial paralysis<\/span>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Such paralysis can occur at any age and often goes away within three months, sometimes it may take longer before the injury is healed and a permanent minor paralysis remains in the face.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Facial paralysis can also be due to a\u00a0stroke.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Symptoms of Facial Paralysis<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

In the case of facial paralysis<\/em>, half the face is more or less paralyzed.\u00a0Often it comes suddenly without warning.\u00a0One mongoose becomes limp and it is difficult, for example, to mouth with a mouth.\u00a0The lower eyelid can hang down and cause the eye to become dry and the eyelid red.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Treatment for Facial Paralysis<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

The treatment for facial paralysis<\/strong> you receive depends on what caused the facial paralysis.\u00a0At Bell’s palsy, it is common to get cortisone tablets.\u00a0If the disease is due to measles, you will receive antibiotics and if it is due to the virus you may be able to get antiviral drugs.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Hanging the eyelid down you can get eye drops during the day and eye ointment at night. You can also protect your eye from dehydration by closing your eyelid with a finger as often as you remember. Wear close-fitting glasses.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

In severe problems when the eye has become irritated, the doctor may prescribe a transparent plastic cover over the eye or taping the eyelid with skin tape. To train the muscles of the face you have to do exercises with different mines.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
