ABSTRACT

Facial muscle spasm is a common clinical cranial nerve disease, mainly manifested as repeated spasmodic twitching of facial muscles, starting from the orbicularis oculi muscle and spreading to the ipsilateral facial muscles, with a few patients affected bilaterally, and the common cause of the disease is that the facial nerve root is compressed by blood vessels in the area of exiting the brainstem. With the development of the disease, it seriously affects the daily work and life of patients. At present, the clinical treatment of this disease is mainly based on local injection of botulinum toxin type A and surgical treatment, but it is easy to cause a series of complications such as facial stiffness, and there are defects such as high surgical risk. Acupuncture therapy has the advantages of easy operation, stable efficacy, and few adverse reactions, and has achieved significant efficacy in the treatment of facial muscle spasm in numerous ways. In order to better summarise the research hotspots and development trends in the field of acupuncture and moxibustion for facial muscle spasms, the research progress of acupuncture and moxibustion in the treatment of facial muscle spasms is now summarised, and the authors, institutions, and keywords of the relevant literature are analysed to summarise the current status of research and development trends, and to find out the inadequacies of the research in this field, with the aim of providing references for the standardisation of the application of acupuncture and moxibustion for the treatment of facial muscle spasms in the clinic, and to facilitate the further development of the discipline. We hope to provide a reference for the standardised clinical application of acupuncture in the treatment of facial muscle spasm and promote the further development of this discipline.
