Former President of the Performing Musicians Association of Nigeria (PMAN), Omatshola Iseli, popularly known as Tee Mac has revealed to everyone that cares to know that he had Bell’s palsy in 2022.
This is coming after ace Nollywood actor, Chidi Mokeme disclosed recently that he had Bell’s palsy and that was the reason he had not been featuring in movies.
However, in his reaction, the Nigerian veteran flutist, said; “I had Bell’s Palsy November 2022 and it took me six weeks with steroids treatments and therapy to get my face back to normal.”
“I could not play the flute for 6 weeks. I was very worried. Nobody know what causes it, I had a bad flue and one morning I woke up with my face dropping.”
“Very scary. When one goes immediately for treatment it can be reversed.”
For those who don’t know, Bell’s palsy a.k.a idiopathic facial paralysis is a condition that causes sudden weakness in the muscles on one side of the face. In most cases, the weakness is temporary and significantly improves over weeks. The weakness makes half of the face appear to droop. Smiles are one-sided, and the eye on the affected side cannot close.
