The Chinese people have long been aware of the choice of acupuncture to treat such patients. However, neurologists and otolaryngologists are opposed to the idea. The basis for not supporting acupuncture for facial neuritis is based on several aspects: First, the location of the lesion of facial neuritis mostly occurs when the facial nerve travels within the bony channel of the skull, while the acupuncture points are all in the face. According to the theory of Chinese medicine, the cause is the local meridian blockage of the face, qi and blood running disorders, and modern medicine, the etiology, pathology, especially the location of the lesion is completely inconsistent, its scientific nature is doubtful. Second, modern medicine believes that the pathogenesis of facial neuritis is not well understood by TCM practitioners, and that strong stimulation given during the acute edema period aggravates the neuroedema. Third, many of the treatments in traditional acupuncture seriously lack science, and some of them are almost barbaric. It causes great harm to patients with facial neuritis. The so-called facial palsy sequelae carried out by the penetrating acupuncture therapy, buried wire therapy, its treatment method itself constitutes damage to the facial nerve. The use of thick needles in the skin for a long distance and heavy stimulation techniques, the formation of trauma to the nerve endings in the skin, resulting in muscle and nerve endings adhesions, resulting in facial muscle spasm. The damage to the facial nerve is even greater with buried thread therapy, where the implanted surgical thread forms a scar during absorption, creating mechanical compression of the facial nerve endings and contracture stimulation, resulting in intractable facial muscle spasms. When modern medicine sees such a case, of course, it will flatly reject. Fourth, many points of traditional acupuncture are actually not related to the facial nerve. For example, acupuncture points such as the hypoguan point and cheek car point. Fifth, some points of traditional acupuncture ignore the anatomical characteristics of the facial muscles and blindly stimulate them, causing facial muscle linkage, which also creates incurable damage to patients with facial neuritis. For example, acupuncture commonly used Yingxiang point, its facial muscle anatomy is divided into upper, middle and lower three layers, respectively, lifting the upper lip muscle, lifting the corners of the mouth muscle, cheek muscle, a single stimulation, resulting in overexcitation of the cheek muscle, while the function of the upper lip square muscle is not restored. It makes the upper lip function never recovered. For the above reasons, we also believe that traditional acupuncture poses harm to facial neuritis and is not suitable for the treatment of facial neuritis.
