?Bell's palsy: May be a facial nerve inflammation or infection, and you describe a bell's palsy. Have your pediatrician evaluate and suggest an approach.

See pediatrician: You should take your child to the pediatrician. It is hard to say exactly what is going on, possible nerve inflammation or infection. Bell's palsy can be caused by a viral infection in children and usually goes way quickly. See the doctor about this.
