It is hard to say which treatment for sequelae of facial paralysis is the best, and the one that suits the patient is the best. Specific treatments include medication, surgery, Chinese medicine and other treatments.
1. Medication: For example, methylcobalamin and B vitamins are used to nourish the nerves, help improve local blood circulation and promote functional recovery; botulinum toxin type A, injected in the obvious parts of the spasm, helps to relieve the spasm of the facial muscles; and dibazole helps to improve the blood circulation of the facial nerves, that is to say, the surrounding tissues.
2. Surgery: For patients with sequelae of facial paralysis that are ineffective in conservative treatment, plastic surgery can be used.
3. Traditional Chinese medicine (TCM) treatment: TCM treatments such as acupuncture, massage and fumigation with Chinese herbs can help improve the symptoms of facial paralysis.
4. Other treatments: Rehabilitation therapy, such as rehabilitation assessment and treatment for sensory and motor dysfunctions caused by neurological diseases, can help promote the recovery of facial nerve.
In addition, the application of these medications requires the guidance of a specialist and should not be applied by the patient without authorization.
