Q

Bells palsy vs Stroke
* where is motor loss
* wrinke or not
* where is lesion

A
  • bells palsy = ipsilateral motor loss on ENTIRE face
    = forehead does not wrinkle ( because entire face is not working )
    = LMNL CN 7
  • stroke = contralateral motor loss BELOW the eyes
    = forehead does wrinkle
    = UMNL CN 7
