I was diagnosed with Bells Palsy back on April 11, 2023 and as of today Jul 12, 2024 I am still dealing with it, I am glad i found this to augment this along with Light LED therapy, massage, and acupuncture. This is definitely been a struggle/frustration and it has impacted my self esteem and being able to concentrate on my work tasks along with taking care of my son. This has been an exhausting endeavor.

Well Bell's palsy recovery is a time-consuming process, I got it in mid of Oct 2023, and in 4-5 months I recovered almost 99%....Dr explained a very useful exercise in the video. Please be patient, consult with your primary Dr and physiotherapist, and give time to your muscles for recovery because it always takes time. Recovery time is different for every person but 1 month to 4 months mostly people can recover.

Hi, im Bruce, im 59. At 9:52 pm June 3rd my vision became blurry followed by double vision, body sweats, excessive vomiting then the right side of my face was paralyzed. June 4th at 11:00am I was rushed to the hospital and by 12:30pm I was diagnosed with Bell's Palsy. Not a stroke thank God. Today is June 18th. I can see straight. I can walk. My left ear is sore and sounds kinda hurt, my right side of my face is still 95% paralyzed but I'm improving every day. From what I've read this can all relapse in 10 years.

It will get better… I can’t even say I am in recovery anymore because well tbh I’m not, I’m 24 and I still HAVE Bell’s palsy. I got Bell’s palsy when I was 15 turning 16. 9 years later, and idk if it’s cause my family love me and don’t want to hurt my feelings, but they tell me they forget that I have Bell’s palsy. I still get headaches especially on one side, I have Bell’s palsy on my right side but my left side hurts a lil bit more when I’m stressed out. I still get watery eyes, and my eyes burn sometimes. It will get better for you guys. I guess I am that small percentage that have this for the rest of my life. 🤷🏻‍♀️

This message goes to a new patient diagnosed with bells palsy. The game changer will be taking steroids (prednisolone) as soon as your diagnosed for with even you take as low as 10mg twice a day for atleast 2-3 weeks, 7 days aren't enough. I repeat , if you want to heal faster take steroids. The first week will be the worst but dnt stop taking steroids
