    Default Medical question

    What is it called when one side of someone's face droops (the muscles are much more relaxed and the eyes slants downward) and that same side grows hair much, much faster. Also, what would cause that? :P

    A stroke?

    Seriously dude, medical advice is not the forte of the frontroom. Unless your illiterate cat is having trouble seeing the intertubes.

    Bells Palsy? Your description is kind of vague.

    hmmm...well it is my face I am talking about. :P I just noticed looking at some photos that one side of my face is a lot more relaxed than the other, and that one is slanted and the eyelids droop on that side. It is not that I cannot move it, it is just that I have to move it consciously, because when I smile, my right side smiles, and my left side half smiles.
    @CR If I thought it was serious I would go to a doctor. I know that people here are not medical experts (at least as far as I know :P), but I was just wondering if someone else experienced the same thing/may know what it was. Like I said, my facial hair and neck hair grows much faster on the left side as well.

    lol, I actually talked to my manager at work today and she told me that she had the same problem after a stroke, so I wonder if I did not have one. Oh well, I got perfect blood pressure now, so going to a doctor would probably not do much good. I was just curious as to how that could happen. (It did not used to be like that)

    I had a similar condition (though nowhere near this level), but the cause is something more manageable: I got an injury to the left side of my face, which left my mouth looking like an S for a couple of months.

    if you have sth that bad then, I suggest you go to a doctor and see to it this ain't sth worse.
