10. Symptoms in other areas of the body
Even though the main signs and symptoms of Bell's palsy are present in the face, some people may experience symptoms and signs in other areas of their body. A headache, neck pain, problems remembering and difficulty maintaining balance or a sense of clumsiness may occur. Some people may even feel weakness in their arm or leg on the same side as the affected nerve. These symptoms can be associated with Bell's palsy but can't be explained by facial nerve dysfunction.
