FIND THE CAUSES?
Causes of Bell's Palsy
Genetic Predisposition
Some individuals may inherit a genetic predisposition that increases the likelihood of nerve inflammation. This genetic factor can raise the risk of developing Bell’s Palsy.
Nerve Function and Structure
Dysfunction in the facial nerve, possibly due to inflammation or viral infections, can lead to Bell’s Palsy symptoms such as muscle weakness or paralysis.
Environmental Factors
Viral infections like herpes simplex, immune system disorders, or facial trauma can trigger Bell’s Palsy. These factors can lead to inflammation of the facial nerve, causing sudden paralysis.
KNOW THE SYMPTOMS
Symptoms of Bell's Palsy
Facial Weakness and Asymmetry
Muscle weakness on one side of the face makes it difficult to smile, blink, or close one eye. This leads to noticeable facial asymmetry.
Pain and Sensory Changes
Pain may occur around the jaw, behind the ear, or on the affected side of the face. There can also be a loss of taste sensation on the affected side.
Uncontrolled Tear and Saliva Production
Bell’s Palsy can cause excessive tearing or drooling, as well as difficulty speaking clearly due to nerve dysfunction.
Difficulty with Facial Expressions
Facial movements become hard to control, resulting in expressions that appear stiff or droopy. This impacts normal communication and appearance.
