can bells palsy be transmitted through kissing or sex? my fiance was just diagnosed with bells palsy and im afraid i might catch it from him.
Hello Tanya, interesting query indeed from you. Bells palsy is usually idiopathic(happens without an easily recognizable cause) although infections can sometimes lead to it. More specifically, even if by an off chance your fianc\u00e9 has a Facial nerve palsy secondary to a viral cause, you have to pretty unlucky to pick up the virus and also go on to get bells palsy from it. Reassuringly, it's a largely harmless condition. Good Luck and make sure you stay with your fianc\u00e9 without any fear.
