Just catching up on this video as well (I also joined your FB page recently). I just want to emphasize how helpful all your videos are, as they explain things so clearly. The diagrams of muscles are so important. One of the things we Bell's Palsiers suffer from is lack of information, so your diagrams help us to understand, for example, WHY the mouth and the eye are moving at the same time (this is the stage I've got to now).
Like another commentator here, I've been extremely disappointed in the lack of help and even understanding from other medical professionals (GP, ENT, neurologist). Thank you for all your time and effort.
Thank you. Just what I needed to understand. ❤
You are the best I appreciate your knowledge 😊
I wish I had somebody to tell me this , the doctors only said to wait and now I have synkenisis. The doctors and two neurologists didn’t give me any answers
To be fair, synkinesis will happen, no matter what. What dictates if you will end up with synkinesis or not is the degree of nerve injury, and the damage done to the nerve which will dictate how the nerve heal, with aberrant regeneration or not . Lack of early mobilization which leads to severe tightness, reinforce and worsen synkinesis. So in your case, even if you had started therapy early on, you can still end up with synkinesis.
Thank You Dr.
Awesome info, thank you! I 've been seen by ENT doctors for synkinesis, and the best they could offer is Botox. I am disappointed how little medical professionals know about BP treatment. I learned a lot from your videos. Thanks again.
Botox is a complete part of treating synkinesis, in addition with facial rehabilitation/neuromuscular retraining. Not by itself. But it can be really helpful. Have you had proper facial rehab?
Hi doc thank you for everything
I have a question every time I eat tears start falling from my effected eye I can’t control it, what does it mean ? is it synkinesis?
you could have synkinesis or crocodile tears. See an opthalmologist.
How can I get a consultation with you? I have had this Bell's Palsy for 6 months now and very little progress on the righ side of my face. HELP! I'm in so much despair looking for help and hope.

Would using a Jade Roller and good idea?
it could help, depending on how you use it. Please see recent post on tool I use.
I’ve had full face paralysis when I got hit with GBS but now it’s almost 1year and a month, my left side is all good but my right side of the face is so abnormal and I think it’s synkinesis. Please tell me what can I do to make my face better again. I feel so embarrassed everytime I look myself. Help!!!!!
I cannot do this by messages. Please check website www.butheauphysio.com
Good day doc,i have bells parsy and its already 9months and i have this kinenesis ,i didnt go check anymore would you show here what excercise and massage should i do please?thank you doc and more power to you.
no I cannot. there is no cookie cutter exercises that helps everyone with synkinesis. Your case of synkinesis is unique. You need to be assessed correctly and taught witht he right thing to address your presentation.
What type of doctor would someone need to go see?
Definitely an otolaryngologist that specialize in facial nerve dysfunction. And a trained facial specialist physiotherapist/physical therapist
I have a Q?! What's the difference between
Facial, Bell's, synkinesis
Bell's palsy is a type of facial palsy ( facial paralysis) that is idiopathic. Synkinesis is a complication of facial palsy that can happened depending on the extent of the original nerve injury, and which involved involuntary movement of part of the face with another movement. One o the most common complication of facial palsy.
Hi. I had facial parlsy a year ago. And now When I smile my eye gets smaller and When I eat my eye cries a lot.... Is this synkinesis? Can I improve? Thanks
I am putting ice on my face and after that a hot towel, later I stretch the muscles with a glove and I end the therapy with a massage around my face. But I haven't seen my face better Than before. Thanks for Your advices
@@yvonnecardenasmoreno8060 Do not put ice on your face! it makes it tighter. You should heat, massage then stretch in that order.
yes it is synkinesis. You need help to figure out how to approach and treat your unique situation ( no one synkinesis is the same)
is it too late to treat synkinesis if it happend back in 2012?
No it is not. I help people that have had synkiensis for 5, 15, 25 years. There is very likely something you can do to help and make some improvement. Most people have not had treatment for it.
@@ButheauPhysiotherapyplease tell me how to treat I have same issue
Not give up Hope ... I have BP for 10 years ..... And this Doctors knowledge and techniques has helped my face movements ❤
I've had bell's palsy since I was 10 yrs old. I am now 40, so 30 years! . I have synkinesis... So are you saying that I need to massage my non affected side more than the affected side?
I massage and stretch both sides, but I focus more on rhw affected side. Have u been doing it wrong?
That depends on your presentation. I don’t know anything about your presentation. You need to have facial movement assessed by facial specialist in order to determine the best course of action. Stretching the non affected sides is important in beginning generally… maybe not so much later… but again, each case is unique.
@@ButheauPhysiotherapy thank you for replying. I find here in the UK we do not have much facilities like yours. I've been Dr's and asked for specialist help, they just give me piece of paper to facial exercises without really caring, saying I have had it so long that it won't get better... This makes me very sad. I've resulted in having botox done in the tight muscles in affected areas to feel better about myself and paid lots of money.
