How dangerous is facial nerve palsy?

Cranial nerve 7 is a peripheral nerve that controls the facial muscles. Symptoms of facial nerve palsy include facial paralysis or facial distortion. This syndrome causes partial or complete facial disfigurement.

The cause of the symptoms of facial nerve palsy is mostly due to the body being exposed to cold air that is not balanced with body temperature in time. At the same time, the cold air that is too different from body temperature will directly affect the facial nerve.

Some other causes are also identified as affecting the 7th cranial nerve such as: Complications after the patient has a trauma to the temporal region; complications after a trauma to the mastoid bone; the patient has a history of inflammation in the ear, nose, and throat area for a long time...

In addition, pathological problems and facial trauma will affect the 7th cranial nerve.
