Hello, Q: my daughter got bells palsy a while back, she is 40 and is better now from it, but the question now is, she is feeling like something is moving around the side of her head, like something swirming, or like fluid moving around. could this be related to Bells? or maybe something else? She has no insurance, but if needed to go to the er, she will. Thank you.

Hello,

I can understand your concern. If the feeling is more like the twitching of muscles, then it can be related to bell's palsy as this condition causes weakness and involuntary movements of the muscles.

In addition, if she is feeling like fluid is moving inside her face, then she could be suffering from sinusitis. Sinusitis causes movements of fluids in the sinus when the head moves and causes this sensation. If she is having cold and congestion, then this is more likely to be the possibility.

You can visit an ENT surgeon if the symptoms do not resolve within a week. He/she can also diagnose symptoms regarding bell's palsy.

I hope this information helps you. Thank you for choosing HCM. I wish your daughter feels better soon.

Best,
Dr. Viraj Shah
