Is it safe to take medication for Bell's palsy during pregnancy?

Pregnant women are susceptible to facial paralysis due to weakened immunity. While you may be concerned about the restricted use of steroids, sufficient improvement can be achieved with traditional Korean herbal medicine and acupuncture alone, both of which are safe for the fetus.

엄마가 스트레스 받으면 아기도 힘듭니다. 안심하고 치료받으세요.

  • 안전성: 임신 중 금기 약재를 철저히 배제한 청정 한약을 처방합니다.
  • 침 치료: 국소 부위 침 치료는 태아에게 전혀 영향이 없습니다.
  • 출산 후: 만삭에 발병했다면 출산 후 조리 과정과 함께 집중 치료를 이어갑니다.
💡 산후풍

출산 직후 찬바람을 쐬어 구안와사가 오는 경우도 많으니(산후풍), 산후 조리에 각별히 신경 써야 합니다.
