Due to the difference of the plane of facial nerve lesion,facial paralysis can be classifiedinto nudear paralysis,paralysis of cerebellopontine angle,Hunt’s palsy,Bell’s palsy and simple facialneuritis.The authors treated 78 cases of the of the latter 3 types,compared the therapeutical effect after 2courses of treatment,and meanwhile made dynamic electromyographic observation between the tragusand the quadrate musde of upper lip for those with Bell’s palsy and Hunt’s palsy.The result showsthat acupuncture has a fair effect in treating peripheral facial paralysis and simple facial neuritis andthe myoelectric recovery in Bell’s palsy is quicker than that in Hunt’s palsy.It is suggested that thehfeher the pane of the facial nerve lesion is,the more unsatisfactory the effect is,and the effect ismore favorable otherwise.
Due to the difference of the plane of facial nerve lesion, facial paralysis can be classified into nuclear paralysis, paralysis of cerebellopontine angle, Hunt's palsy, Bell's palsy and simple facial neuritis. The authors treated 78 cases of the latter 3 types, compared the therapeutical effect after 2 courses of treatment, and meanwhile made dynamic electromyographic observation between the tragus and the quadrate muscle of upper lip for those with Bell's palsy and Hunt's palsy. The result shows that acupuncture has a fair effect in treating peripheral facial paralysis and simple facial neuritis and the myoelectric recovery in Bell's palsy is quicker than that in Hunt's palsy. It is suggested that the higher the plane of the facial nerve lesion is, the more unsatisfactory the-effect is, and the effect is more favorable otherwise.
