Acupuncture as a unique therapy of traditional Chinese medicine, facial paralysis and other diseases have a certain degree of efficacy. However, acupuncture is not a panacea, especially for the treatment of malignant tumors, should be regarded as a contraindication. Reporter yesterday from Sun Yat-sen Memorial Hospital, Sun Yat-sen University, Oral and Maxillofacial Surgery Department was informed that, recently, from the east of Shen Aunt suffered misdiagnosis and misdiagnosis of the pain, nearly let the cancer spread. Half a year ago, Aunt Shen woke up suddenly found mouth crooked eyes, his family rushed him to the hospital, a few days down the road, the condition did not improve, anxious family members looking around for a “miracle cure”. I heard that a neighboring village, a traveler with ancestral acupuncture therapy cured many strange diseases, the family immediately sent Aunt Shen to acupuncture, this moxibustion is three months, facial paralysis not only did not get better, and even some aggravation, had to come to Sun Yat-sen Memorial Hospital, Sun Yat-sen University. Professor Chen Weiliang, Director of Oral and Maxillofacial Surgery of the hospital, introduced that Aunt Shen had a kiwi-sized tumor under her ear, which was very hard, and the tumor was considered to be malignant in nature. After MRI examination, it was found that the tumor was close to the carotid aorta, which would greatly increase the difficulty of the surgery and intraoperative risk if the surgery was performed later. After three hours of surgery, the tumor under Aunt Chen’s ear was finally completely removed. According to Chen Weiliang, patients like Aunt Shen will encounter several cases every year, and it is heartbreaking to see the mis-treatment by traveling doctors. Acupuncture therapy is not suitable for the treatment of head and neck neoplastic diseases, on the contrary, overstimulation will also cause rapid proliferation of tumors and malignant changes. Excessive stimulation of malignant tumors can also accelerate local proliferation and systemic metastasis of tumors. Chen Weiliang pointed out that there are many causes of facial paralysis, including central facial paralysis caused by intracranial lesions, peripheral facial neuropathy caused by viral infection induced by cold stimulation, compression of nerves by local tumors in parotid gland area, or facial paralysis caused by malignant tumors encroaching on facial nerves. If symptoms of facial paralysis occur, they should go to regular hospitals as soon as possible for early detection, early correct diagnosis and early effective treatment. Currently, surgery is the main way to treat parotid area tumors, and the small-incision minimally invasive parotid tumor surgery performed by Sun Yat-sen Memorial Hospital of Sun Yat-sen University has hidden scar and good aesthetic effect after surgery. However, Chen Weiliang also pointed out that not every patient is suitable for minimally invasive surgery, depending on the nature and size of the tumor and other comprehensive factors to judge. In recent years, the incidence of malignant tumors in adolescents has been on the rise. According to the statistics of Sun Yat-sen Memorial Hospital of Sun Yat-sen University on parotid gland tumors in adolescents in the past five years, it was found that about 28% of adolescents attending the clinic suffered from malignant tumors. This should draw the attention of teenagers and parents.
