Facial Palsy

Facial palsy is a condition in which one side of the face suddenly stops moving because of a disorder of the facial nerve that drives the facial muscles.
The first task is to distinguish peripheral (Bell's palsy) from central palsy due to stroke; and even when peripheral, early treatment within 72 hours of onset determines the degree of recovery.
If the extent of nerve damage is established by testing and medication and nerve treatment are started early, substantial recovery can generally be expected over several weeks to months.
