Hi,
I have gone through your complaints and your symptoms seem to be a complication of shingles. It looks like facial palsy. You need to consult a doctor and go for steroids as well as antiviral medicines.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
Regards,
Dr. Asmeet Kaur Sawhney, Dermatologist
