Patuiaritary
It's due to pontine lesion that destroys abducens nerve, facial nerve and corticospinal tract of one side.paralysis of lateral rectus muscle on the same side = due to damaged abducens nerveparalysis of facial expression muscles, and loss of other functions on the same side = due to damaged facial nerveparalysis of contralateral limbs = due to damaged corticospinal tract
In most of the cases this happens due to a condition called as Bell's palsy. Facial nerve passes on it's way out of the skull through the internal ear. Here it is compressed in most cases. The patient usually has runny nose or else some cold related symptoms. The symptoms usually resolve in three weeks. There can be other causes of facial paralysis, in which case the nerve is pressed.
All muscles of facial expression are supplied by seventh cranial nerve. That is Facial nerve. This nerve carries the taste sensation from anterior two third of the tongue also.
One of the more common conditions is Bell's Palsy, stemming from an injury or infection to a facial nerve.
People suffering from the facial nerve paralysis usually suffer from the inflammation of facial nerves.
branches of the facial nerve
The Facial Nerve or Cranial Nerve VII is the nerve involved with Bell's Palsy.
Marginal mandibular branch of the facial nerve.

depending on which nerve is damaged almost anything could happen
The facial muscles are innervated by facial nerve (cranial nerve VII). In contrast, the nearby masticatory muscles are innervated by the mandibular nerve, a branch of thetrigeminal nerve (V).
Facial Nerve (VII)
In most of the cases this happens due to a condition called as Bell's palsy. Facial nerve passes on it's way out of the skull through the internal ear. Here it is compressed in most cases. The patient usually has runny nose or else some cold related symptoms. The symptoms usually resolve in three weeks. There can be other causes of facial paralysis, in which case the nerve is pressed.
Facial nerve, the seventh cranial nerve. It leaves the brain along with eighths cranial nerve through internal acoustic meatus and comes out through stylomastoid foramen to supply the muscles of facial expression.
