Master Wang’s mood is really bad, it turns out that over the past few months, the right side of his face is always inexplicably twitching, think about their own neither hypertension, and no diabetes, has always been very good body how this? To the hospital to see a neurologist, said “facial muscle spasm”, the old Wang this can not figure out, his half of the face is actually not under their control? The doctor said there is a nerve in the brain called the facial nerve, mainly to control the movement of facial muscles, once a part of this nerve is compressed by the blood vessels, it will twitch from time to time like the old Wang. The neurologist said this disease to find a neurosurgeon to operate to cure, if conservative point can also take medicine or acupuncture to reduce the symptoms. Master Wang thought about it and felt that it was too dangerous to open an operation on the head, so he has been in the neurologist here with some medicine to eat, but after eating for a period of time and did not see any improvement, acupuncture in the Department of Traditional Chinese Medicine for a few courses also did not work, although the half of the face twitching is not a serious disease, there is no life threatening, but the impact on daily life is still great, Old Wang has always liked to play cards with friends, skating But now every time he and his old friends get together, he is always worried about his disease, and the more nervous he is, the more he twitches, so much so that he would rather stay at home and watch TV than go out and meet people, but this is like years for the old Wang who likes to interact, and after thinking about it, he finally decided to have an operation to relieve the problem that has been bothering him for months. The surgery took about an hour, and Mr. Wang woke up after the surgery, and looked in the mirror and found no surgical scars. After that, the nerve was separated from the blood vessel, and then a special spacer was placed to relieve the compression, which simply means that the blood vessel was removed from the nerve. The disease that had plagued Master Wang for several months disappeared. Now Old Wang’s face is free again, and Old Wang has resumed his old life of leisure and pleasure. The treatment of facial muscle spasm includes several methods such as medication, acupuncture and Botox injection, all of which have unsatisfactory effects. At present, microvascular decompression surgery is the most effective method of treatment, with a success rate of more than 95% and a recurrence rate of less than 5%. If you have facial muscle twitching that affects your work and quality of life, you should go to the hospital as soon as possible and consider microvascular decompression surgery after diagnosis.
