Justin Bieber, is bouncing back again as he’s pictured smiling after battling temporary facial paralysis from Ramsay Hunt syndrome which made him to postpone the US dates of his tour last month.

The 28-year-old Canadian pop star was seen in high spirits while on vacation in Idaho on Tuesday, as he was accompanied by his wife Hailey Bieber, longtime friend and mentor Usher Raymond, and pals Jason Kennedy and his wife Lauren Scruggs.

However, while enjoying a much-needed break with his wife and friends, it seemed as though the musician is now showing great improvement as he flashed a grin and appeared vigorous while chatting amidst the group.

WHAT IS RAMSAY HUNT SYNDROME? THE RARE COMPLICATION OF SHINGLES THAT LEADS TO FACIAL PARALYSIS

Ramsay Hunt syndrome is a complication of shingles, caused by the same virus as chickenpox (VZV), that can lead to facial paralysis.

The virus becomes reactivated after laying dormant for years and causes inflammation and irritation on the facial nerves.

VZV is harmless unless it is reactivated and should this happen new symptoms will appear.

The virus can be reactivated when the immune system is weakened, and less able to fight off infection. Stress is often a trigger.

Figures suggest that five in every 100,000 adults in the US will develop RHS. It poses a similar threat in the UK, according to the NHS.
Children are rarely affected by RHS, as the complication most often affects adults in their 60s.

Treatment usually involves antiviral medication. Doctors recommend seeking help within three days of the start of symptoms.

What are the symptoms of Ramsay Hunt Syndrome?

• Facial muscles droop
• Difficulty closing the eye
• Altered taste
