About this listen

Bell's palsy is a sudden, often temporary, facial nerve disorder that causes muscle weakness or paralysis on one side of the face, resulting in facial drooping and difficulty with facial expressions, such as smiling or closing the eye. The exact cause is usually unknown, but it is often linked to viral infections. While most individuals recover fully over time, treatment may involve medications like corticosteroids to reduce inflammation and manage symptoms.
