Treating Justin Bieber's Ramsay Face Paralysis

Doctor Ricky Brown breaks down what's going on with Justin Bieber's face paralysis stemming from Ramsay Hunt Syndrome, a very rare condition that occurs in 5 out of every 100,000 people and caused by the reactivation of the chickenpox virus lying dormant in the facial nerves.

Doctor Ricky breaks down the history of chickenpox and the famous chickenpox parties that parents used to host to get their kids infected and building natural antibodies at a young age, but this leads to the virus lying dormant and can cause conditions like shingles or Ramsay Hunt Syndrome.

Understand how the facial nerve works with Doctor Ricky's breakdown of the nerve placements along our face and how Ramsay Hunt Syndrome affects these nerves.

Watch Doctor Ricky break down exactly what happens during Ramsay Hunt Syndrome with visuals that show the swelling of the ganglia nerve that cuts off the blood supply to it and causes the paralysis symptoms we see in Justin's face.

Doctor Ricky then goes into the treatment of Ramsay Hunt Syndrome breaking down the various medications used for treating face paralysis such as Aciclovir which treats symptoms of chickenpox and singles or Prednisone, a popular corticosteroid which is an anti-inflammatory that can treat the inflammation in the nerve itself.

Learn about the different ways you can deal with Ramsay Hunt Syndrome's problems such as dangerously dry eyes treated with lubricant or even an eye-patch in extreme cases.

Discover the insane surgical procedure where surgeons will literally sew gold weights into your eyelids to add extra weight that helps you blink. When the person will initiate closing their eyes the gold weight will help it actually close.
