Treatment of facial neuritis

First, facial neuritis refers to peripheral facial paralysis caused by nonspecific inflammation of facial nerve in stylomastoid foramen. Some patients have pain in the ipsilateral mandibular angle, ear and mastoid area a few days before the onset of the disease. When inquiring about the history of the disease, we should pay attention to whether there are cold and wind on the face before the onset of the disease. Most patients suddenly find that the cheek movement is not effective or crooked, the expression is not comfortable, the forehead lines disappear, the eyes are cracked, the nasolabial groove is flat, and the mouth angle droops when they wash in the morning.

Second: acupuncture treatment: the selection of acupoints depends on the patient's condition, such as those who can't lift the forehead or frown take yangbai, chengwuqi and Tongzi, those who can't show their teeth take buccal Che, Dicang and zygomatic, those with drooping mouth take zygomatic, Qianzheng and dilun, etc. Vitamin B12 can also be injected into acupoints, 0.2-0.3ml per acupoint, 2-3 times a week, 7-10 times as a course of treatment.

Third: surgical treatment: for patients with obvious pain at the stylomastoid foramen, decompression of stylomastoid foramen or facial nerve canal is feasible to reduce the compression of nerve. For patients with poor recovery of nerve function and complete denervation by electromyography, facial nerve adhesions separation or anastomosis can be considered, which can achieve certain curative effect. It is necessary to use surgical treatment to relieve facial spasm after spontaneous occurrence or partial repair of nerve injury. When determining the spasm site, alcohol injection or partial resection of the nerve trunk or a branch of the nerve can be used. Occasionally, these operations can permanently relieve the spasm, but when the nerve regenerates, the spasm usually recurres.

matters needing attention

After the onset of neuritis, patients should avoid hard fruit food. Because hard fruit needs to be chewed hard, it often induces symptoms of trigeminal neuralgia. Therefore, in the treatment of trigeminal neuralgia, hard fruit food must be avoided.
