I have recently been diagnosed with Bell’s palsy. I was only given a ct scan and it was clear. The dr said itsnormally caused by herpes virus and that he could tell by sores inside the ear, but I had none. Does this page mean I have herpes if I have this? They did no testing at all other than ct scan. I also had the corona virus a month ago and was hospitalized for it. He said it could possibly be the cause but never tested. Doesn’t that mean I HAVE an infection currently? It’s been nearly 2 months so why am I getting this now?
