What Causes Facial Paralysis Down The Middle Of Face And Twitching?
Question: In the past few months I have been having face paralasis for a short time (half hour or so) down the middle of my face, twitching and not dizziness but, unsteady, like if I stand up or bend over I loose my balance. It happens on and off. What can this be...nothing matches the symptoms.
Brief Answer:
Facial nerve or brain problem.
Detailed Answer:
Hi thanks for your question.
I would encourage you to see your doctor. Your symptoms could be secondary to a problem with the facial nerve itself or because of a problem with your brain which would require investigation with a CT or MRI scan.
I hope this helps answer your question.
Best wishes
