There has been some discussion in the recent past ( I think it was in February) on this listserv stating electrical stimulation "may not" be appropriate for bell's palsy. I have some old references from 1995 and have done a medline search and have not found anything recent on the subject. Does anyone have anything more recent to substantiate not using electrical stim on people with Bell's palsy? What is the world doing clinically for these people? Thanks for your input.
