A member asked:
After having a stroke some people are known to develop a facial droop on one side?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Yes: It depends what part of the brain the stroke happens in. Facial droop is a possibility but so is arm or leg weakness, difficulty speaking, confusion, difficulty walking, etc.
