While crying, left eye closing and mouth
While crying, left eye closing and mouth Male, 34 Hello doctor, since yesterday when my baby (1yr 8months old) is crying she is closing her left eye and mouth is pulling side. What are reason for doing like this..? all activities are fine. she has started walking at the 1yr 6months age, due lo lack of calcium. When she is in womd, mother was on fully strict bedrest, whole 9months she was on bed, not even allowed to use washroom, in place used bed pans. Pls give me your suggestions. Answer From Dr. Mohan Kejriwal It looks like Bell's palsy, contact your child physician early. Is she having ear discharge too? No ear discharge. She is playing as usual and all are normal except while crying she is closing left eye and pulling mouth one side little..
