Best Answer

The herpes virus thought to cause Bell's Palsy attacks and damages the nerve cells in the trigeminal and/or facial nerves (5th and 6th, respectively) of the cranium. The virus will attack and enter the cell, utilize the cell's reproductive engines to make more copies of itself, and eventually bud (use part of the cell's membrane to form a capsule) out of the cell or simply apoptize (cause bursting) of the cell to release several thousands (or more) copies of itself to attack the surrounding nerve cells.
