Now due to many life factors and dietary habits, resulting in the emergence of facial muscle spasms more and more people, and according to the survey found that patients with facial muscle spasms are also gradually younger, when suffering from facial muscle spasms, the wrong treatment will make the condition recurring and gradually aggravated, then facial muscle spasms in the end can be cured? Listen to my answer! Facial muscle spasm is due to the facial nerve compressed by the nearby blood vessels resulting in abnormal nerve discharge produced by the beating. The onset of the disease in middle-aged women, the onset of the disease is often the lower eyelid of the orbicularis oculi muscle paroxysmal mild twitching, gradually expanding to the side of the face, to the corner of the mouth muscle twitching is the most obvious. In a few severe cases, facial muscle twitching can involve the entire face and facial muscles. Facial muscle spasm patients not only endure long-term torture but also delayed the best time for treatment, long time twitching will also lead to facial muscle atrophy and deformation, serious cases will cause hearing, vision, limbs and other obstacles to the patient’s life, work will gradually cause a very serious impact. Facial muscle spasm is a disease that cannot be cured by itself, many patients do not understand the disease and seek medical help in a hurry, so patients with facial muscle spasm must accept regular scientific treatment as soon as possible. Most of the patients with facial muscle spasm due to the onset of no pain, just feel bad look and other issues, think it is a harmless little thing, the treatment will often be unsettled, in fact, patients with facial muscle spasm, if the long-term untreated, may lead to the occurrence of other complications. In fact, if patients with facial muscle spasm are left untreated for a long period of time, it may lead to other complications. You also need to be careful in the selection of treatment methods. Patients should know that these methods are not scientific, the most common drugs for phenytoin sodium or carbamazepine, medication can only be light patients to relieve the condition, in addition to a long time to take the drug side effects, dependence, and acupuncture treatment of facial muscle spasm in fact, the efficacy of the treatment is not obvious, most of the psychological effect. In fact, facial muscle spasm itself is afraid of stimulation, sometimes acupuncture will aggravate the condition. Botulinum toxin injections can control the onset of facial muscle spasm to a certain extent, but after 3-6 months after the injection, the symptoms will almost recur again, more than three consecutive injections will gradually cause damage to the facial nerve, repeated injections may be paralyzed facial nerves and thus cause artificial facial paralysis. It has been found that the intracranial section of the facial nerve is compressed by blood vessels and lesions occur, which is the root cause of facial muscle spasm. The disease needs to start from the cause to solve the problem of blood vessels and compressed nerves. The most effective treatment program for this disease is microvascular decompression surgery, which is to completely separate the compressed facial nerve and blood vessels. Domestic top facial nerve expert said: “The main method of treating facial muscle spasm is to make a small eye behind the ear, and find the compressed blood vessels under the microscope, and then insert a small piece of cotton ball made of special material (Teflon cotton) between the blood vessels and the nerves to cushion the blood vessels away from the facial nerves, and release the compression to achieve the therapeutic purpose. ” Currently, microvascular decompression is a method of treating the cause of facial muscle spasm, while preserving the anatomical integrity of the facial nerve. Clinical treatment of facial muscle spasm through microvascular decompression surgery, mature technology, simple operation, good results, is currently commonly used surgical treatment method. The method is minimally invasive and does not damage the nerves or brain tissue.
