Suggest Treatment For Bell S Palsy

Bell s Palsy: I had bell s palsy that started about 2 months ago and took 4 weeks to recover. The right side of my face was affected. I was relieved that recovery didn t take too long. However, just last weekend the left side of my face now feels a bit tight and numb. I feel like it s a very very slight case of bell s palsy. I am able to blink my left eye and move the left side of my face (but slightly less movement now compared to the right side). Is this normal? For the other side of the face to get affect only a few weeks after recovery for one side?
