[|Human|] Hello, I had Bells Palsy 22 years ago, and experienced full recovery except a droopy eye when I get tired. A month or so ago, I noticed a weird feeling on the same side of the face with slight tingling around my mouth. It comes and goes, but I go for days and don t notice at all. It doesn t hurt, is not numb, but feels very weak at times. However, I did see my physician, and he noticed that my face was twitching above the mouth on left side (Bells Palsy side) and prescribed medicine along with steroids. I can t remember the name of the medicine because I am here at work, but it is used to treat herbes virus and Bells Palsy. I am still having symptoms after a week on medication. My doctor is recommending a MRI, even though he still thinks it is a weak facial nerve that can be treated with steroids. I would love your opinion. I m sorry/ I just realized that this is not a free service. Thanks anyway. I was just looking for another opinion.
[|AI|]  Hithis is due to neurological weakness post bells palsy. Although steroids can resolve the problem for some duration, you can start on multivitamin therapy, especially methylcobalamine to improve the longevity of the nerves. Calcium supplements after checking out the calcium levels can help to some extent. Good physiotherapy exercises like chewing, blowing help in nerve regeneration. All the best take care
