Hello,

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.
