What is Facial droop?
When the nerves in the face are damaged, the facial muscles cannot function properly, causing facial droop. Either acute or chronic nerve injury is possible. Damage to the area of the brain that transmits nerve signals to the face muscles can also result in facial drooping.
The entire face, one side, or just the lower half of the face may be afflicted at one time. The issue may also have an impact on how you move your tongue and/or eyes.
What is causing the face to droop will determine the course of treatment. Your doctor will check your face and how it moves if you have facial droop, and he or she may also request tests like an electromyography, which studies the muscles and nerves, as well as imaging scans and blood tests.
If a brain tumour, stroke, or other ailment is to blame for your facial droop, it will be treated.
