Bellâs Palsy and Ramsay Hunt Syndrome Bellâs palsy is a sudden or rapid onset facial paralysis or weakness which develops over hours to a day or two. If the face takes longer than 2-3 days to become paralyzed, the disorder is probably not Bellâs palsy and other causes need to be considered. Bellâs palsy, was formerly thought to be idiopathic or without known cause. The consensus now, is that it is a viral neuritis or viral inflammation of the nerve that makes the face to smile. The viruses which can cause viral neuritis likely represent what are called neurotropic or nerve-loving organisms.
