What this Trial Is About
Bell's palsy itself has a certain self-healing tendency. Therefore, it is recommended to leave a bit of Bell's palsy for self-recovery without treatment. If complete recovery is achieved after treatment, complications such as stiffness, contracture and even hemifacial inversion may occur as time moves. Therefore, this study aims to evaluate the optimal end time of acupuncture for facial paralysis.
