| ===== Peer-Reviewed Scientific papers regarding COVID-19 Vaccine Associated Bell’s Palsy ===== | Facial paralysis and Bell’s palsy are distinct diagnoses, but both involve paralysis of the facial nerve. A cause for the paralysis can be identified for a diagnosis of facial paralysis, where as in cases of Bell's Palsy the condition occurs without an apparent cause. lies in how the conditions are diagnosed. |
| | |
| | Facial paralysis, for example, can be linked to a tumor, infection, or nerve damage. |
| | |
| | The symptoms of facial paralysis may persist and may never disappear, they can escalate over time. Surgical treatment may be necessary and effective. |
| | |
| | Bell's palsy is also known as "acute peripheral facial palsy of unknown cause."((https://www.mayoclinic.org/diseases-conditions/bells-palsy/symptoms-causes/syc-20370028)) It is believed to be caused by inflammation of the nerve serving the muscles on the side of the face. It can be caused by a viral infection or may arise following vaccination. |
