What is the reason for a pregnant woman's crooked mouth and slanted eyes?

If a pregnant woman has a crooked mouth and slanted eyes, she must pay attention to whether she suffers from facial paralysis. After suffering from this disease, the patient's facial expressions are partially or completely paralyzed, the palpebral fissures are significantly enlarged, and the corners of the mouth droop. When I was a child, I couldn't show my teeth, and I usually suddenly discovered this phenomenon when washing my face in the morning. Eventually, the patient may even be unable to raise his eyebrows or close his eyes normally.

There are many reasons that may cause pregnant women to have crooked mouths and slanted eyes. Let’s take a closer look at them below.

Infectious lesions. It is mostly caused by the activation of herpes zoster that is dormant in the sensory ganglion of the facial nerve. Psychological factors are one of the important factors causing facial nerve paralysis. Before facial nerve paralysis occurs, a considerable number of patients suffer from physical fatigue, lack of sleep, mental tension and physical discomfort.

It is caused by trauma, surgery, facial neuritis, and space-occupying diseases. Otogenic diseases. Tumor. Poisoning: such as alcohol poisoning, long-term exposure to toxic substances. Metabolic disorders: such as diabetes, vitamin deficiency. Vascular insufficiency. Congenital dysgenesis of the facial nerve nucleus. Bell's palsy, etc.

Based on the onset form and clinical characteristics, diagnosis is not difficult. This disease should be differentiated from central facial paralysis, facial nerve paralysis caused by acute infectious polyradiculitis, and facial nerve paralysis caused by posterior cranial fossa inflammation and tumors.

Most patients suffer from sudden onset of the disease, and inevitably experience tension, anxiety, and fear. Some are ashamed to see people because of concerns about facial changes, and that poor treatment will leave sequelae. At this time, we must patiently explain and comfort the patients according to their different psychological characteristics, relieve their tension, and stabilize their emotions.

Once a pregnant woman suffers from facial paralysis, she must be careful not to use her eyes frequently and keep her eyes moist at all times to avoid more serious infections in the eyes or face. It is best to wear sunglasses when going out. You can buy some nutritional eye drops and wear an eye mask before going to bed.
