Visitor# WHAT IS BELL'S PALSY? Bells palsy is a condition that causes the facial muscles to weaken or become paralyzed. It's caused by trauma to the 7th cranial nerve, and is not permanent. WHY IS IT CALLED BELL'S PALSY? The condition is named for Sir Charles Bell, a Scottish surgeon who studied the nerve and its innervation of the facial muscles 200 years ago. HOW COMMON IS BELL'S PALSY? Bells palsy is not as uncommon as is generally believed. Worldwide statistics set the frequency at just over .02% of the population (with geographical variations). In human terms this is 1 of every 5000 people over the course of a lifetime and 40,000 Americans every year. IS BELL'S PALSY ALWAYS ON THE SAME SIDE? The percentage of left or right side cases is approximately equal, and remains equal for recurrences. IS THERE ANY DIFFERENCE BECAUSE OF GENDER OR RACE? The incidence of Bells palsy in males and females, as well as in the various races is also approximately equal. The chances of the condition being mild or severe, and the rate of recovery is also equal. WHAT CONDITIONS CAN INCREASE THE CHANCE OF HAVING BELL'S PALSY?

THE DIAGNOSIS ... Bell's palsy is a diagnosis of exclusion. During the first visit to a doctor, questions will be asked, and tests may be ordered. These procedures will help the doctor determine the cause of the facial weakness, or rule out conditions which are known to be linked to facial paralysis. When no underlying cause is found, Bells palsy is the diagnosis. For example, blisters in the ear or mouth, dizziness or reduced hearing on the affected side may suggest a diagnosis of Ramsey Hunt syndrome. Slowly progressing paralysis, weakness in areas other than the face, an enlarged parotid gland or paralysis that spares the eye and brow are also among the symptoms may indicate the presence of an underlying condition requiring additional medical attention. After taking a history and carefully observing the symptoms, tests that may be ordered include various blood tests, MRI, or CAT scan. These tests shouldn't be a cause for concern. They will either add conviction to a diagnosis of Bell's palsy, or provide the physician with the information needed to proceed in another direction. Facial paralysis is a result of nerve damage, and many people look no further for help than to a neurologist. Patients may be unaware that the condition also falls into the realm of otolaryngology, and that (ENTs) are generally quite knowledgeable in diagnostics and treatment.
