It sounds as if some type of injury occured to the frontalis branch of your facial nerve. In the vast majority of cases the nerve is only stretched and stunned. Over time the function will recover. Seeing a physical therapist skilled in nerve injury rehab might help you take control of your own process better especially if this is just a temporary, albeit irritating, phenomenon. It may take weeks to months to see the return. If the nerve was cut, that is more of a problem. The success rate for nerve reconstruction in the region of the eyebrow is unfavorable. You will need to find someone skilled in facial nerve reconstruction to give you your options if it seems that this is your situation. Stay positive and focus on the fact that it will probably get better. Good luck.
