How common is bell's palsy i worry every time i get a cold or fever blister or swollen glands i'm going to get it since my husband got bells?

Low risk: While viruses are contagious and can be passed from one to another, the risk of Bell's Palsy is not and remains an individual risk, of which the factors are not completely understood. So you are at no greater risk because your husband has Bell's Palsy.
