Recruitment will be done for patients with Bell’s Palsy between the ages of 20 and 45, Blinding description: This is going to be a single blinded study and the outcome assessor will be blind. Assessor will independently collect the data through outcome measures from the patient of group A and B. N/A Bell’s palsy. Intervention 1: Intervention group:PNF, Mime Therapy and Sensory Exercises. 3 sessions of 40 minutes will be given to the patient per week for 18 weeks (1.5 months). The baseline readings will be taken initially, second reading will be taken on 4th week. Follow up reading will be taken on 6th week. In the treatment session EMS will be applied for 10 minutes, PNF will be applied for 15 minutes along with stretching, Mime therapy will be applied for 10 minutes and sensory exercises will be performed with 5 repetitions each for 10 minutes. Intervention 2: Control group: PNF 3 sessions of 40 minutes will be given to the patient per week for 18 weeks (1.5 months). The baseline readings will be taken initially, second reading will be taken on 4th week. Follow up reading will be taken on 6th week. In the treatment session EMS will be applied for 10 minutes, PNF will be applied for 15 minutes along with stretching and strengthening exercises will be performed for 10 minutes. Yes - There is a plan to make this available What will be shared: PNF WITH MIME THERAPY AND SENSORY EXCERCISE INPATIENTS WITH BELL'S PALSY When: data will be available after completion of treatment session. That will be march 2025 To whom: data will be visible to academic institutions Conditions: another author of our study is also available for reviewing request author: ayeshabutt031@gmail.com Where to obtain: kindly contact responsible persons of this study 1st Author: ahmadayesha460@gmail.com corresponding author: sana.akram@uipt.uol.edu.pk How to obtain: contact to above mentioned person that will provide you as early as posssible Comments:

The facial symmetry will be assessed by Sunnybrooke Facial Grading System. The system includes three components: (1) resting symmetry, (2) the symmetry of voluntary movements, and (3) synkinesis. The SFGS has high reliability and repeatability which is good to excellent. Timepoint: The baseline readings will be taken initially, second reading will be taken in 4th week and the follow up reading will be taken in the 6th week. Method of measurement: Functional disability measured by Facial Clinimetric Evaluation Scale (FaCE) Facial symmetry is assessed by Sunnybrooke Facial Grading System. The Facial Clinimetric Evaluation Scale (FaCE) is a validated patient-based facial grading instrument developed in 2001. It measures both impairment and disability in facial paralysis and has the potential to be an invaluable adjunct to physician-graded scales. The FaCE scale is a 15-item (questions),five-point Likert scale that consists of six domains. The domains are facial movement, facial comfort, oral function, eye comfort, lacrimal control and social function. Transformed total and domain scores are calculated using specific formulas and the scores obtained range from 0 to 100. Timepoint: The baseline readings will be taken initially, second reading will be taken in 4th week and the follow up reading will be taken in the 6th week. Method of measurement: Functional disability measured by Facial Clinimetric Evaluation Scale (FaCE) Facial symmetry is assessed by Sunnybrooke Facial Grading System.
