Bell's palsy: Causes and symptoms

Bell's palsy is a neurological disorder that suddenly affects the muscles on one side of the face. Although the exact cause remains a mystery, scientists agree that it may be caused by:

Symptoms of Bell's palsy include:

Diagnosis of Bell's palsy

Bell's palsy is diagnosed by a careful clinical examination, which typically reveals weakness or paralysis of the muscles on one side of the face. To rule out other conditions that can cause similar symptoms (Lyme disease, Guillain-Barré syndrome, tumors),further tests such as blood tests and medical imaging (CT scan, MRI) may be needed.

Differentiating Bell's palsy from other neurological conditions is critical for optimal treatment. An accurate diagnosis allows for the most appropriate care and improves the chances of recovery.

Medical treatments for Bell's Palsy

Medical treatments for Bell's palsy may include:

Corticosteroids

Corticosteroids are powerful anti-inflammatory drugs that reduce swelling and inflammation around the facial nerve. They are often prescribed in pill form at the onset of paralysis.

Mechanism of action

Corticosteroids work by inhibiting the production of substances that cause inflammation.

Benefits

Rapid reduction in symptoms and improved recovery.

Side effects
  • Weight gain.
  • Increased blood pressure.
  • Sleep disorders.
  • Mood changes.
  • Long-term bone fragility.

Antiviral medications

If a viral infection is suspected as the cause of Bell's palsy, antiviral medications may be prescribed in addition to corticosteroids.

Mechanism of action

Antivirals inhibit viral replication, thereby limiting nerve damage.
Acyclovir is the most commonly used antiviral.

Benefits

Potentially speeds recovery by fighting the underlying viral infection.

Side effects

Side effects are generally mild and may include:

  • Nausea.
  • Headaches.
  • Skin rashes.

Surgical treatment of Bell's Palsy in Turkey

Surgery is rarely indicated for the treatment of Bell's palsy. It is generally considered in the following situations:

Types of surgery

The most common surgical procedures performed in Turkey to treat Bell's palsy are

Facial physiotherapy

To optimize recovery from Bell's palsy, facial physiotherapy is essential. It aims to:

The physical therapist uses various techniques, such as biofeedback and electrostimulation, to stimulate the muscles and help the patient regain control of his or her face.

Hospitalization, recovery and convalescence

Bell's palsy is usually treated on an outpatient basis. Hospitalization may be necessary if complications arise or if the patient requires intensive care.

Recovery can vary from person to person, but most people regain near-normal function within a few months. However, full recovery may take up to a year or more.

Convalescence often includes facial rehabilitation exercises to help regain movement and muscle strength.
