What advice can be given for the treatment of facial palsy?

  After 23 years of working in acupuncture. Have some treatment suggestions to share with patients here hopefully it will be helpful for facial palsy patients.  With facial palsy you must go to a regular TCM hospital. The doctor will give you the appropriate medication for the condition and cause during the acute progressive stage. This is very important and directly affects the prognosis. The earlier the acupuncture treatment, the better. Do not use acupuncture at the initial stage, but use electro-acupuncture until the recovery period (about 10 days), change the location of electro-acupuncture, do not use too much penetration, and do not use electro-acupuncture treatment if there is a linkage. The disease is not very serious can not eat Chinese medicine. Do not use folk remedies, delaying treatment, spending money to the end and may leave sequelae. It will be more difficult and longer to treat the sequelae period. The majority of these patients can return to normal in about 4 weeks, and a very small number of patients who have reached the sequelae stage can basically recover with persistent treatment.
