People with facial paralysis are able to bathe and wash their hair. What is commonly referred to as facial paralysis is a type of peripheral facial paralysis caused by non-specific inflammatory damage to the seventh pair of nerves in the cranial nerve, the facial nerve. Most patients have a history of wind-cold attack before the onset of the disease. As the facial nerve travels through the bony structure of the facial neural tube, it becomes edematous after damage and is compressed by the facial neural tube, which can lead to symptoms such as lightening or disappearance of the headline on that side of the face, poor eye closure, crooked corners of the mouth, and drooling. In the case of facial paralysis caused by a viral infection, there is also often herpes around the ear canal and pain in the mastoid process behind the ear. During the period of facial paralysis, you need to avoid wind and cold stimuli as much as possible, and you need to wear a mask when you go out. Bathing and shampooing are fine, and try to avoid blowing wind.
