A member asked:
Can spine and or hip misalignment cause muscle shrinking and weakness in one half of the body including face? i have bad pelvic, back, and hip pain.
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Not alone: If the problem goes up to the face, then no a spine problems is unlikely to be the cause. This is because the nerve supply to the face is through cranial nerves that exit directly out of the brain and do not go through the spine. Don't hesitate to see a neurologist for a full workup.
