Varicella or chickenpox is usually regarded as a self-limiting disease, but occasionally it may leadto irreversible neurological complications. Isolated lower motor neuron facial nerve palsy is a rarecomplication of varicella, with very few cases reported from the Indian subcontinent. We report onesuch case, where the patient developed facial palsy after healing of cutaneous lesions and recoveredcompletely with oral corticosteroids.

Melkersson-Rosenthal Syndrome (MRS) is a rare otoneurologic condition, which is poorly understood and often underdiagnosed. Etiology and incidence are unclear, although infectious, inflammatory, and genetic causes have been implicated. Recurrent facial nerve palsy, facial swelling, and fissured tongue are the symptoms and signs of this condition. However, this triad is not typical in all patients as patients may present with one or more of the symptoms, which makes management of this condition difficult. Steroids may prove to be useful especially in patients who have facial nerve palsy. In this case report, we have described a 46 year-old Caucasian male who presented to the clinic for the evaluation of orofacial swelling and left facial deviation with a history of multiple treatments for recurrent lower motor neuron type facial nerve palsy.

Facial Nerve palsy is a neurological condition that causes partial or complete impairment of the facial nerve. Bilateral facial nerve palsy is rare with an incidence of 1 per 5,000,000. We report the case of a 34-year-old gentleman who presented with sudden-onset bilateral lower motor neuron (LMN) facial weakness.
