1. Effective treatment for Bells palsy at homeopathic Clinic, Mumbai
Definition:-
It is a unilateral, peripheral facial paresis or paralysis that
has an abrupt onset and no detectable cause. Bell palsy is
one of the most common neurologic disorders affecting the
cranial nerves, and it is certainly the most common cause of
facial paralysis worldwide.
The onset of Bell's palsy can be frightening for patients, who
often fear that they got stroke or have brain tumor or
distortion of their facial appearance will be permanent.
Important factors to remember:
• Initiate appropriate treatment.
• Protect the eye.
• Arrange appropriate medical follow-up care.
Pathophysiology
Inflammation and swelling of the facial nerve results in
compression of the nerve within the temporal bone.
Anatomy
The facial nerve (seventh cranial nerve) has 2 components.
The larger portion comprises efferent fibers that stimulate
the muscles of facial expression. The smaller afferent portion
contains taste fibers to the anterior two thirds of the tongue,
secretomotor fibers to the lacrimal and salivary glands, and
some pain fibers.
Frequency
The condition affects approximately 1 person in 65 in a
lifetime. However, the incidence is significantly higher in
persons with diabetes mellitus than in those without
diabetes.
Bell's palsy can also be recurrent, occurring about 7% of the

2. time.
The incidence of Bell's palsy increases between the ages of
10 and 30 years. Bell's palsy is least common in persons
younger than 10 years and most common in those older
than 70 years.
It can be equally in both sexes.
Mortality/Morbidity
Bell's palsy can cause aesthetic, functional, and
psychological disturbances in patients who have residual
nerve dysfunction during their recovery phase or in patients
with incomplete healing.
• Partial paralysis
• Motor synkinesis (involuntary movement accompanying a
voluntary movement)
• Autonomic synkinesis (involuntary lacrimation after a
voluntary muscle movement)
History
The most common complaint is of weakness on one side of
the face.
• Approximately 50% of patients experience pain in behind
ear. (Mastoid region).The pain frequently occurs
simultaneously with the paresis, but precedes the paresis by
2-3 days in about 25% of patients.
• Tear flow: Two thirds of patients complain about tear flow.
• Altered taste: While only one third of patients complain
about taste disorders.
• Dry eyes
• Impaired tolerance to typical levels of noise.
Physical Findings of facial paralysis:

completely impaired.

Symptoms of Bell's palsy:-
The following are some of the symptoms of Bell's palsy:
• Throbbing pain and sensitivity to touch
• Redness and hot swelling
• Fever with chills and body ache
• Discharge of pus and blood when the abscess breaks
• Enlargement of regional lymph nodes
• Generally, all abscesses feel warm due to increase in blood
circulation; however, tubercular abscesses usually remain
cold (hence, they are referred to as ‘cold abscesses’). They
too need immediate critical care.
