摘要

Facial paralysis is defined as severe or complete loss of facial muscle motor func-tion possibly due to peripheral or central lesions. Currently, there are no effective treatment mo-dalities for facial paralysis in western medicine. In Traditional Chinese Medicine ( TCM) , it is be-lieved to be associated with malnutrition of facial muscles caused by qi stagnation and blood stasis due to wind-cold invasion. This article primarily investigated the key points of common syn-dromes, TCM nursing methods and healthy guidance of facial paralysis, aiming at maintaining and developing the strengths of TCM, improving its efficacy and standardizing its behavior.
