How to treat crooked mouth?

A large part of the human body's image is shaped by the facial features, because a beautiful face can leave a deep impression on people and look more comfortable. The facial features are composed of eyes, nose, mouth, ears, etc., and none of them can be missing. Each part is the basis of the image. Take the mouth for example. Everyone's mouth shape is almost different. Some people have the smallest mouth and look gentle, some people have slightly larger mouths and look bold, and some people have crooked mouths, which is a typical crooked mouth, which has a destructive effect on their image. Let's take a look at the explanation of how to treat a crooked mouth.

Facial neuritis, commonly known as facial nerve paralysis (i.e. facial nerve paralysis), "crooked mouth" and "hanging wire wind", is a disease characterized by motor dysfunction of facial expression muscles. It is a common and frequently occurring disease that is not limited by age. The common symptoms are facial paralysis and eye deviation, and patients are often unable to complete even the most basic movements such as raising eyebrows, closing eyes, and puffing out lips.

1. Non-surgical treatment

Principle: Promote early resolution of local inflammation and edema, and promote recovery of nerve function.

(1) For peripheral facial nerve paralysis, if it is caused by a viral infection, antiviral, nerve nutrition, glucocorticoids, B vitamins and other drugs can be used.

(2) To protect the exposed cornea and prevent conjunctivitis, eye masks, eye drops, eye ointments, etc. can be used;

(3) Massage: Use your hands to massage the facial muscles affected by facial paralysis several times a day, each time for 5 to 10 minutes.

(4) Physical therapy: commonly used methods include ultrashort wave, low and medium frequency electrotherapy, laser, drug introduction, etc.

(5) Acupuncture treatment.

2. Surgery

If facial nerve paralysis has not recovered after 3 months of conservative treatment, and there is no response in the facial nerve conduction velocity and facial muscle electromyography examination, that is, no potential activity, surgical treatment can be used.

Nursing

1.Diet care

Patients with taste disorders should pay attention to the temperature of food; avoid hard food; try to place food behind the healthy tongue and chew slowly; remember to rinse your mouth in time after meals to keep your mouth clean.

2. Rehabilitation care

You can apply hot compress to the affected side to promote local blood circulation. When the facial muscles begin to recover, you need to do muscle strength training for the facial muscles, focusing on training the facial muscles, such as opening the eyes, wrinkling the forehead, sucking, curling the lips, smiling, raising the corners of the mouth, whistling, pursing the lips, pulling the jaw, etc., about 20 minutes each time, once a day, until recovery.
