What department should I register for facial neuritis?
Patients with facial neuritis should make an appointment with the Department of Neurology and seek treatment there. Facial neuritis is caused by infection with neurotropic viruses, which invade the facial nerve and induce inflammation, manifesting as symptoms such as drooping of the mouth corners and facial paralysis. During the acute phase of treatment, it is necessary to use some neuro-nourishing drugs, and appropriate use of steroids can quickly relieve nerve edema and alleviate symptoms. Antiviral drugs can be used during the acute phase, and treatment can be supplemented with infrared radiation to promote local blood circulation. Additionally, after stabilization, most patients can combine acupuncture and physical therapy for treatment a week later. Usually, massaging the paralyzed facial area can promote blood circulation and help repair damaged nerves. (Please use medication under the guidance of a professional physician and do not self-medicate.)
