I was diagnosed with Bell's palsy Monday week ago. I have been put on prednisolone and antiviral drugs as routine treatment, but after 10 days I am still having shooting pains from behind my ear to my jaw and up over the side of my face. It pain seems to be more intense at night. How long does will it continue? any suggestions on how to relieve it would be more appreciated.
my husband had this many years ago and acupuncture helped immensely. Hugs!
