Why is my mouth suddenly crooked?

Many people will encounter some sudden illnesses in their lives, and many sudden illnesses are caused by some diseases. A sudden crooked mouth is a common sudden illness. Most of these illnesses are caused by some inconspicuous diseases of the body, but there are many diseases that can cause this condition, and people don’t know why it suddenly happens. So, what happened to the mouth that suddenly became crooked?

First, why did the mouth suddenly become crooked? A crooked mouth is one of the symptoms of facial paralysis. Usually, patients with facial paralysis find that their mouth is crooked when they wash up in the early morning, and they cannot hold water in their mouth when rinsing their mouth. In addition, some patients also experience symptoms such as facial numbness, inability to close the eyelid on the affected side, disappearance of the nasolabial groove, inability to frown, and overflow of tears. Wind-cold factors: According to the survey, 53% of facial paralysis patients were exposed to cold wind, cold water and other stimulations on the affected side of their head before the onset of the disease, ranking first among the causes of facial paralysis. This shows that facial nerve microcirculation disorder plays a dominant role in the pathogenesis of facial paralysis. Many patients sweat after physical activities, and for the sake of temporary relief, they use electric fans or air conditioners to blow directly on their heads. However, they do not know that the body's resistance is at its lowest point at this time. When exposed to cold, the blood vessels of the facial nerve spasm, causing ischemia and edema of the facial nerve and triggering facial paralysis.

Second, in addition to sudden colds that can easily lead to facial paralysis, viral infection is also one of the causes of facial paralysis. From the perspective of traditional Chinese medicine diagnosis, the cause of facial paralysis is mostly due to empty blood vessels and exposure to wind and cold. The second is liver and kidney yin deficiency and wind-yang disturbance. The third is excessive emotions, as well as internal capsule damage, intracranial hemorrhage, intracranial tumors, infection, congenital facial nerve nuclear dysplasia and many other factors.

Why does the mouth suddenly become crooked? Excessive fatigue leads to a decrease in one's immunity, which in turn causes facial paralysis: More than one-fifth of facial paralysis patients have a history of excessive fatigue a few days before the onset of the disease, ranking second. It is worth noting that as the pace of life accelerates and competition becomes increasingly fierce, people need to face pressure from all aspects such as work and family life.
