    Default bells palsy

    my daughter (17) was diagnosed last night , poor love she looks like iggle piggle , although i have to say she is finding it hillarious .

    im glad i knew about the condition and could see before i called the hospital what it was as in all seriousness its quite shocking as it appears like she's had a stoke . so fingers crossed with treatment it will sort its self out before too long as it can take up to a year to heal

    My friend has had this and she said it looks a lot worse than it really is, she had intense physio and cant even tell now that anything was ever wrong. Glad your dd is ok with it

    My dad had this a few years ago, fully recovered now but like you say the signs etc was scary.
