On examination at the doctor’s office he could not wrinkle his forehead on the left side, and could not show his teeth or pucker his lips on that side. Taste sensation was also affected.

The patient was also experiencing “dry mouth” and loud noises caused him discomfort. He showed no additional signs or symptoms and was in good health otherwise.”
