Facial Paralysis and PT

Facial Paralysis, also known as Bell’s Palsy is a serious condition that needs urgent care. It causes loss of facial movement because of the nerve damage. It typically happens only on one side of the face causing the muscles to droop and become very weak. This condition can come and go depending on the cause. It is essential to act upon it quickly to prevent permanent damage. 

This condition can be caused by infection, inflammation, head trauma, stroke, and head or neck tumor. Symptoms can be facial pain, headaches, dizziness, difficulty talking, inability to express emotions, and difficulty eating and drinking. This is something that can affect your daily life in a major way. It can prevent you from living comfortably and you can find yourself running into difficulties and discomfort.
