Abstract
The facial nerve supplies motor, sensory, and parasympathetic innervation to the head and neck, and its paralysis can have significant physical and psychological impacts. This study discusses a compelling case involving a 21-year-old male who developed delayed facial nerve palsy (DFNP) on the eighth day after cortical mastoid surgery. Through conservative management, the patient achieved a full recovery by the 52nd day. Our experience underscores the importance of approaching DFNP with patience, emphasizing the need for thorough counseling of both the patient and their family members.
