Hi,

It should be Bells palsy. When MRI is okay, there is no need to worry. It is better to continue Prednisolone and Acyclovir for 7 days more. It will take bit more to come back. It will be wise to start the physiotherapy for facial paralysis.

Take care. Hope I have answered your question. Let me know if I can assist you further.
