Bell’s Palsy
Bell's palsy also known as "facial paralysis" is when one side of the face becomes paralyzed. It is usually caused by a damage to a facial nerve, although there maybe no obvious reason for the damage. The occurrence is sudden and may be noticed on waking, or following an attack of Shingles. Similar symptoms can be caused by damage to face such as knife or accident caused wounds, although the latter is more likely to be permanent.
