Chap turned up the other evening with a vague ache down the left side of his neck, no nodes, and some tingling at the angle of his mouth - on the other side. I had no idea what it was, and told him so - see SOS etc.
The next day, presumably cliically advanced, he presents in A&E and the make the diagnosis of Bell's palsy. They give him a week's course of high-dose oral steroids. Who did they do this?
a. Tried, trusted, and medically approved, according to recent EBM
b. They had to do something, and it seemed like a good idea
c. Something else.
Answers please.
