Althought this is not a question, to address the "physical examination and finding of a patien with Bell's Palsy:"
The sensations on the three branches of the trigeminal nerve will be compared on each side of the face, most likely by dragging the fingers of each hand lightly across each side. A positive test result for Bell's Palsy will reveal the the fingers feel "heavier," or are felt more, on one side of the face over the other. The examiner might ask the patient to demonstrate the muscles of the trigeminal and/or facial nerves by doing things such as shutting both eyes as tight as possible and try to prevent the examiner from opening them. The patient will be unable to keep the affected side's eye shut. Smiling or raising eyebrows might be other tests to look for droopiness on one side. The final test result would be a fluroscene test on the affected eye to look for oxygen deficiency (due to the eye not shutting all of the way during sleep).
