[|Human|] HI, I am 7 months pregnant. I got diagnosed with Bell Palsy on the left side of my face on Sunday. I was advised to take steroids 10 mg. Neurologist has asked me to see him next week saying that I should be fine till then.I have also started facial exrercises.Today I have been sensing flickering in the eyes and the lips would not close earlier are closing now feel a bit heavy only at times. Does this mean that I am Improving? Or is there something I need to worry about.
[|AI|]  Hi, Based on the information provided you are having flickering in eyes and now able to close the lip, its very good sign and strong reason to believe that you are IMPROVING. In bells Palsy one nerve is being compressed or injured, but in your case its seems like it got COMPRESSED, and the STEROIDS will help To reduce the swelling leading to get the nerve back to it original function. Here is some information about nerves, I think it will help you in understanding it better, nerves are like electric wires which conducts electricity from main switch to appliance in the same fashion the nerves collects information from surrounding and sends the information to brain to analysis, for example if you put your leg in fire, the nerve will say it's hot, the information passes to brain and brain will reply to remove the leg from the fire its very fast process, as it happens in fraction of second. Hope it helps.
