Official Title: Ultrasound-Guided Stellate Ganglion Block With Botulinum Toxin Versus Steroid in Refractory Bell's Palsy
Study ID: NCT05099835
Brief Summary: the local stellate ganglion block with bupivacaine and corticosteroid treatment for acute peripheral facial nerve palsy in patients can induce hyperglycemia, and an alternative local therapy may be necessary and some time may ve ineffective. Our purpose in this study is to evaluate therapeutic effects of stellate ganglion block (SGB) Botulinum Toxin on referactory facial nerve palsy
