Facial palsy is most commonly caused by peripheral facial nerve palsy. Early treatment with drugs and acupuncture is effective, but due to untimely treatment or improper treatment and prolonged period of time, facial palsy often enters the posterior phase through the recovery phase. The treatment of facial palsy in the sequelae phase is more difficult and the cure rate is lower compared to the acute phase and recovery phase. For the treatment of facial palsy sequelae, Chinese medicine scholars have studied more and have been quite effective. Acupuncture is a better treatment for the sequelae of facial palsy. In recent years, acupuncture has made great progress in the research of treating the sequelae of peripheral facial palsy methods, and acupuncture therapy has been widely used clinically and accepted by the majority of patients as one of the effective means of treatment for this disease. Acupuncture therapy includes milli-needle, electro-acupuncture and auricular acupuncture, which can play different roles. Ear acupuncture pressure bean also has the advantage of precise efficacy and no risk of cross-infection with blood-borne diseases. The acupuncture point injection has the effect of acupuncture, which can adjust the meridian and acupuncture point of the face, and at the same time, the process of gradual absorption of the medicine in the acupuncture point produces a relatively long-lasting stimulation of the acupuncture point, which can improve the efficacy of acupuncture from many aspects. Moxibustion on the face can dispel wind and warm the meridians, open the channels and activate the blood. In clinical practice, two or more methods are often combined for comprehensive treatment, and the cure rate is high. There is no standard treatment plan for the treatment of facial paralysis sequelae, nor is there a unified view. There is also no universally accepted standard for the assessment of efficacy, and there is a lack of objective indicators. The research is biased towards the clinic, and animal models are difficult to establish and lack the support of experimental data. In conclusion, early facial palsy is treated with drugs and acupuncture with definite effects, while the treatment of facial palsy in the posterior phase is more difficult and slightly longer, but the posterior facial palsy may be cured through comprehensive therapy.
