Eventually, Daniel returned to his normal routine, but his nightly setup looked completely different. The air conditioner still ran, yet its airflow no longer hit his face directly. He understood that there was no strong evidence that ordinary cold air itself causes facial paralysis, while medical conditions and infections are much more important factors.

The lesson stayed with him: when a sudden change affects the face, getting evaluated quickly matters far more than blaming the temperature in the room.
