Dr. Bhupesh Kumar, Neurologist, talks about the risk factors and possible complications that could arise from the Ramsay Hunt Syndrome. He explains why Justin Bieber contracted the disease - because he had gotten Chicken Pox in the past, and people with a history of Chicken Pox stand at a higher risk than others for this disease. Additionally, people who have not gotten the chickenpox vaccine are another demographic segment that may be vulnerable.

Possible complications can arise if the treatment is not done on time, or/and if the patient neglects the condition. In these cases, the damage may travel to the facial nerves and cause permanent nerve damage. Additionally, the damage done to the eardrums may also become permanent, resulting in a complete loss of hearing.
