Hi,I am Dr. Gopal Goel (Orthopaedic Surgeon). I will be looking into your question and guiding you through the process. Please write your question below.
My fiancee woke up yesterday morning his jaw swelled,by last night his eye was swelled,his mouth shifted off to the side and his jaw is still swelled.When he tries to drink it comes back out because of the swelling and because his mouth/lips aren t straight.
The symptoms you mention are looking like a Bell's or facial palsy. you need to visit a neurologist and get it checked at the earliest so the medication can start.
Since it's a serious note I am asking you to visit the doctor for medication. Bells palsy if treated early than results are excellent.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
Regards,
Jay Indravadan Patel, Physical Therapist or Physiotherapist
