What are the signs of facial paralysis? Four symptoms are the most typical

After people suffer a stroke, they are very likely to develop sequelae such as facial paralysis. Generally speaking, there will be relevant signs before the onset of facial paralysis. So, what are the signs of facial paralysis?

1. Lacrimal gland secretion disorder:

The early symptoms of facial paralysis are tear gland disorders, which mainly refers to the tear glands of the eye with facial nerve paralysis secreting too little or even dryness, while the other side can secrete tears normally.

Second, the early symptoms of facial paralysis include eye signs:

Patients with facial paralysis will have the eyeball sign, which means that the two eyeballs of patients with facial paralysis will not be on the same horizontal line. The paralyzed side will be higher than the healthy side. It can also be found that the pupil of the affected side will also be above the horizontal line of the healthy side, which is also a symptom of facial paralysis.

3. Saliva secretion disorder:

Salivary secretion disorder is a symptom in which patients with facial paralysis secrete very little saliva on one side. Many people don’t pay much attention to it. In fact, this is a symptom of facial paralysis. If you don’t pay attention to it, it may cause the facial paralysis to worsen and become more difficult to treat.

Fourth, the early symptoms of facial paralysis include platysma sign:

The platysma sign refers to the situation in which the head of a patient with facial paralysis is forcefully flexed forward, with the platysma muscle on one side not contracting while the platysma muscle on the other side is contracting. This symptom of facial paralysis usually occurs when the facial paralysis is more severe.
