Hi doctors, can you tell me what is supra nuclear facial paralysis?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Psp: This means the facial paralysis is coming from some part of the brain above the level of the facial nucleus. This can be associated with progressive supra nuclear palsy. This usually starts with problems with gaze. You should see a movement disorder neurologist
