First time, first week bell's pallsy
I had my first symptoms Sunday and was diagnosed wiht Bells Pallsy. I immediately started taking a steroid and anti-viral. The dropping and speech got worse in the next 2-3 days. I have had tingles on my face which I think is signs of nerves waking up. Today (Thursday) my scalp feels fatigued. Again, I hope a sign of being on the road to recovery. A few questions from those down the path already - do my initial sentiments expressed align with your experiences? When I do start getting feeling and moement back with smile and speech, will it be gradual improvement or "start working all of the sudden"? Is it OK to resume physical exercise soon? Any advice would be appreciated - this is a weird experience.
