You have no reason as a medical student to fail in your exams or practice after watching Dr Wazal Fazals video. Thank you so much for the detailed explanation.

[@anoopsaini971]

Its really a fortune to find you here explaining every topic you teach becomes crystal clear for every one. Keep enlighten us in all imp topics through your videos. Amazing sir!

[@MedNerdDrWaqasFazal]

I am very happy you found my videos helpful 🙂

[@jeanho2226]

Doctor, I wish to express my appreciation to you giving a comprehensive & concise explanation of Bells Palsy. I have this condition about 18 days ago. An ENT doctor suggested I could have a tumour or something malignant, which made me very worried. After your explanation, I now know that what I have is Bells Palsy and the cause is the Lower Motor Neuron. I am very much relieved. Thank you Doctor Waqas.

[@mitalimahadik5690]

Sir.. it's a very well explained topic,i could never understand it so well when I was studying MBBS some 12 years back...U have very simply explained it but in an excellent manner.. Thanks sir

[@MedNerdDrWaqasFazal]

I am very glad that you found my video helpful. Keep supporting 😊

[@mtmadv7872]

Same with me I m in 4th professional but still find this topic hard to interpret

[@salilkumardeshmukh3292]

nicely ssid whole thing

[@regy2.0]

Cannot find a better explanation than this. I couldn’t understand this topic during my mbbs😅. Now it’s very clear to me, Thanks a lot sir

[@Ghostride88]

You are an extraordinary GURU that every students deserves 🎉❤

[@MedNerdDrWaqasFazal]

So Nice of you 😊

[@shahrukhsiddiqui4264]

Thank you for this video sir. Your video is so simple yet informative even I'm not from medical background I understand each and every point. It helps me to understand my situation. Just suffering from bell's palsy. Thank you again. ❤

[@jcrhvmp2325]

Thanks for breaking down so easily relatively complex medical conditions, I am impressed doctor. Keep doing it please, you are gifted. Thanks

[@drbratinshankar5141]

Just saw a patient with Bell's palsy and came to this awesome lecture.

[@mickStetson]

Thank you for your clear and thorough explanation. I now know that this is the condition I have. I have had Herpes Simplex since a child and the doctors could not find a cause for the cankor sores I experienced every month until I was 28. At this time, I visited a dentist because my whole mouth was sore and I thought I had some major dental problems.

[@mettyruth155]

Very amazing n powerful knowledge,it's not easy for many clinicians to distinguish the two,bravo sir

[@MedNerdDrWaqasFazal]

So nice of you 😊

[@LSSFarm]

Thank you doc for the very detailed and informative topic about facial and bells palsy. ❤

[@karenholt8441]

This was a very well explained and easy to understand video. Thank you. I have suffered RHS for over 4 mths now. My facial drooping is 95% better, but the eye won’t fully blink or close yet and my mouth is still immobile. I do have a contracture of the muscle up to the right cheek, but if I press on it in the right spot to release the muscle, my mouth moves much easier to talk. I’m going to try acupuncture for that. 🤷🏽‍♀️ I wanted to clarify something. When someone says their face is numb, I don’t think they understand the difference between paralysis & numbness, because I didn’t have any numbness but called it that at first. My dentist showed me that my face was not numb but just paralyzed. He explained the difference in ‘motor’ & ‘sensory’ nerves. Thank you again for the very thorough explanation! The diagrams helped and were excellent!

[@cjreddy2607]

I've had palsy for the past 19years, it occurred 3weeks after giving birth. I wish it didn't, it changed my entire life, I cry many nights because of my features in pictures. My children are growing up and only know me looking like this, I've been to many doctors and none have given me an explanation or cause 😩😩

[@jeewanrajnirola4789]

[@MubasharAbrar]

I'm so glad I found your channel. Your videos show how much you love teaching. It all in your expressions. Such glow when you are explaining something. Sir can you please do symptoms to diagnosis type videos. Sometimes in OPD when the patient comes with no previous history and vague symptoms. Which are yet to ve investigated. I am mostly lost when majorty of female patients here in Pakistan arrive with symptoms like generalised muscular pains especially in the upper back and muscle spasms. Their labs usually come out normal. I would really like a video on your approach to such vague symptoms which sometimes make you clueless. Thanks in advance.

[@MedNerdDrWaqasFazal]

Dear Dr. Mubashar Abrar, thank you very much for your kind words. I will surely make video on the topic you mentioned. It is one the most common thing faced by doctors. In such cases always have the approach to rule out all major pathologies. You are doing the very right thing. I will try my best to cover this broad topic for you. 😊

[@MubasharAbrar]

@@MedNerdDrWaqasFazal Thank you Sir for taking the time to reply. I am going through all of your videos one day at a time while I commute to work. They are a delight to watch. Thank you for teaching us. Though I am a surgical resident these topics should be known by heart to all doctors. One can never have enough knowledge. You may never know which topic can help you save a life. ♥

[@MedNerdDrWaqasFazal]

I am humbled. 😊

[@drsohailahmad]

Excellent Explanation Dr.Waqas really appreciated … your work is helping a lot of doctors around the globe. Kindly guide us about the use of corticosteroids …in case the patient is hypertensive and having hyperglycemia and also having the same lesion. What to do with in first 3 days? Kindly also give short comments on physiotherapy in such cases. Stay blessed

Good day Doc. I have a question, If a patient with a history of high blood pressure and chronic renal disease comes to the emergency room complaining of one side, the right side numbness and tingling sensations ( from the face to the leg) and the BP is 220/110 mmhg and only presents Ataxia in physical findings. And the TAC is negative.. what is the level of the lesion in the brain? And what could be the presumption diagnosis?

[@14neo1]

Thank you 🙏

[@ummati4071]

Sir, thank you for sharing. My sister has bells palsy and its her 5 th week. We didn’t complete the course of steroids at initial stage, can we take it now? Shes also complaining of weak eyesight on the unaffected side, can belly’s palsy occur at both the sides of face together. Awaiting ur reply

[@vasantisspecialrecipes8119]
