You need to take steroids and do physiotherapy of the paralyzed facial side. Polyfax eye ointment is also recommended. You better see a Neurologist for this purpose.

Dear Patient,
It seems that you have suffered from left facial nerve palsy. Best treatment is to start oral steriods (Prednisolong 1mg/kg/day) within 3 days of onset....i hope your doctor has started it. You have to continue it for 10 days. After that you may just wait. Usually it will recover in 2-6 weeks. Meanwhile you have to keep your left eye covered some eye patch during the night sleep and continue physiotherapy.
