Bells Palsy, which is the most common form of facial nerve palsy, can be a very terrifying condition for a person to have because any form of facial paralysis creates a life of traumatic experiences. It is very difficult for somebody who doesnt suffer with facial nerve palsy to understand how it affects your looks and everyday self-esteem and self-confidence. The majority of Bells Palsy sufferers just want to lock themselves indoors because they feel totally uncomfortable when people see the side of their face all droopy and distorted. Bells Palsy symptoms are easily recognisable by the muscles on one or both sides of your face being paralyzed.
