Bell's Palsy
Say: BELZ POL-zee
Bell's palsy causes problems with the nerves in a person's
face. People who have it might look as if half of their face is frozen or droopy
because the nerves and muscles there aren't working. Bell's palsy can be
caused by an injury (like getting hit really hard in the face); by the flu
or other viruses; by diabetes;
or by Lyme disease.
It usually goes away quickly.
