Question:
What is a condition/cause that makes your face muscles feel heavy/weak?
hi, my face has been feeling very heavy the past year or so, mainly around my cheeks and eyebrows. i was wanting to know of any possible conditions that may be the cause of this. i went to a dermatologist and regular doctor but they just gave me skin cream that made my face feel a little better, but not more than 20%. that is why i think it is more my face muscles rather than my skin. thanks.
Answers:
There are many muscle disorders, dystophies and myopathies that can affect your facial muscles. The list is very long and most have many overlapping symptoms. Please return to your doctor, Explain you think its the muscles and ask about being refered to a neurologist. Some of these disorders are very difficult to diagnose. They have been testing and watching my son for 4 years and still dont know which one he has. If your doctor will not refer you to a neurologist, get a new doctor. Hope this helps, Best of luck.
