No.: http://www.facialparalysisinstitute.com/5/bellpalsy.html stress is an unlikely trigger of bell's palsy. A common cause of bell's palsy is the reactivation of a herpes virus. It's important to speak with a facial plastic surgeon to gain a better understanding of what may be causing you trouble.
