Inflammation Around Nerves In Left Side, Pain In Neck,shoulder And Arm After Having Bell S Palsy. Any Thoughts?

Hi dr Samuel, I have had lots of inflammation around the nerves all on the left side. I had a bells palsy last april and since then I have recurring numbness in my face. I had terrifying pains in my head in june which are since gone (I had a ct scan to make sure it was nothing more sinister). My neck, shoulder and top of left arm are seldom without pain since last January. Please can you help.

HI
Thank for asking to HCM
The Bell's palsy is it self a disease of facial nerve, it causes the inflammation of cranial nerve VII, the CT scan does not reveal any thing, in time and proper treatment gives the excellent result, and if left untreated then the facial element remains permanent and that may be painful intermittently or with changing of environment the intensity of pain changes . you can try "Carbamazepine" 200 mg just single dose in day this gives nice relieve from pain, have nice day.
