ABSTRACT
Sixty patients of Bell's palsy aged between 8 and 72 years, comprising 31 males and 29 females, were studied clinically to find out a method of prediction of recovery in early stage. It was found that young patients with incomplete palsy, unaccompanied by postauricular pain, loss of taste sensation over anterior 2/3rds of tongue hyperacusis and dry eye and recovery beginning within 4 weeks of onset of palsy are likely to make complete recovery, while older patients with complete palsy accompanied by severe postauricular pain, loss of taste sensation, hyperacusis and dry eye and beginning of recovery after 4 weeks of onset of palsy are most likely to have incomplete recovery.
