Moist heat or analgesics for pain, gentle massage, steroid therapy, sometimes antivirals are used along with prednisone. 85% recover within one year but if the paralysis is complete, recovery is poorer.

Bell's palsy is sudden, idiopathic, unilateral peripheral 7th cranial nerve palsy. Symptoms are hemifacial paresis involving the upper and lower face. There are no specific tests for diagnosis. Treatment may include corticosteroids, lubrication of the eye, and intermittent use of an eye patch.
Please see the web pages for more details on Bell's palsy.

there is no known treatment for Bell's Palsy other than steroids in the first few days. It either resolves on it's own or it doesn't. The longer you have it, the more likely it is a permanent condition.
