Bell's palsy involves a weakness or paralysis on one side of the face. Symptoms often appear first thing one morning. A person wakes up and finds that one side of their face does not move.

The person may find that they suddenly cannot control their facial muscles, usually on one side. The affected side of the face tends to droop. The weakness may also affect saliva and tear production, and the sense of taste.

Many people are afraid they are having a stroke, but if the weakness or paralysis only affects the face, it is more likely to be Bell's palsy.

Approximately 1 in 5,000 people develop Bell's palsy each year. It is classed as a relatively rare condition.

In very rare cases, Bell's palsy can affect both sides of the face.
