Bristol Palin Shares Ongoing Struggle with Bell's Palsy-Induced Facial Paralysis

The 34-year-old reveals she has seen no improvement in muscle movement on the left side of her face after five weeks of treatment.

Bristol Palin, daughter of Sarah Palin, has been battling facial paralysis caused by Bell's Palsy since late January 2025.
She disclosed on Instagram that she has tried a variety of treatments, including acupuncture and medication, but has not seen any progress after 35 days.
Palin first noticed symptoms when her face began to feel numb and paralyzed, with the left side losing all muscle movement within hours.
Doctors have suggested that stress and lack of sleep may have triggered the condition, which remains unresolved despite daily efforts to address it.
The former reality TV star has spoken candidly about the emotional and physical challenges of the condition, expressing uncertainty about her recovery.
