Tongue numbness conditions
Common Questions and Answers about Tongue numbness conditions
tongue
This symptom of strange sensation on the tongue can be part of a number of conditions. It could be a demyelinating condition. Demyelination is when the protective myelin sheath of the neurons is damaged and removed.
This could also be due to certain vitamin deficiencies. Specifically Vitamin B12 is implicated.
Only an MRI will not be helpful. You should do routine blood investigations to start with. Consult a Neurologist if the sensation persists.
Hi there. Numbness or tingling in the tongue also known as paresthesia, occur most commonly due to damage to the nervous system. Damage to the lingual nerve supplying the tongue as a complication of dental procedures like wisdom tooth extraction, implants or root canal procedures. Other conditions could be stroke. Sometimes these can involve the lips or jaw. Calcium and vitamin B complex deficiency needs to be addressed. Consult an oral surgeon for assessment of possibilities. Hope this helps.
THIS NUMBNESS WAS ALWAYS VARIABLE. IT WAS NEVER THE SAME. IT ALWAYS CHANGED. SOMETIMES IT WOULD BE NEXT TO NOTHING WHILE AN HOUR LATER I COULDN'T FEEL ANYTHING.
At the moment, my right lip and left side of my tongue are seemingly permanently numb, while recently (probably two to three days ago), parts of my right leg have started to get numb randomly. If I stretch it during the night, by the morning the numbness is usually gone. The numbness comes when I'm lying down.

Hello,
For the past few months I have been having some issues regarding my chin, under my tongue and even lips. Off and on throughout the day my chin will get a numbness sensation and will also be under my tongue and sometimes make my lips numb. My face will get flush and I become very hot. At times I thought that maybe I should eat something but this only seems to help the problem temporarily and then it comes back. Any suggestions?
m aware it is suggestive of a peripheral nerve issue eg nerve is inflamed, trapped, or injured by trauma but there are lots of medical conditions that have associated peripheral nerve issues eg diabetes, thyroid conditions, alcoholism, Lyme etc etc
The list would have to be a lot smaller with the addition of facial and oral numbness, off the top of my head both could be caused by hyperventilation syndrome, medical side effects, allergy, there's probably a lot of other possible causes but t
I do sometimes experience some burning on the right hand side of my face and tongue numbness. On occasions the tongue numbness is really bad but usually not long lasting but of late often my tongue on the underneath but just feels numb or like pressure or tight sensation. When this occurs I seem to have some type of head pain but more like a random shooting pain.
some of my back teeth already broken (only left their root), but they does not hurt and does not bleed.
If at that time the massage girl is on sero-conversion (without symptom of ARS that feasible to me), which made her viral load very high, which made let say even though only small amount of vaginal secretion come to my mouth from such licking activity, but it contains high viral load.
This is accompanied by simultaneous ipsilateral (same side) numbness of the tongue. This numbness is caused by compression of the second cervical root (C2) in the atlantoaxial space.
Hope this helps. Do discuss this with your doctor (both dentist and orthopedic specialist) and get yourself examined. Please let me know if there is any thing else and do keep me posted. Take care!
or sensation (sometimes on the tongue) a short while before the event. If you feel something coming on do not hesitate to pull to the side of the road and stop immediately.
properly, I have numbness and tingling in my half of my chin, cannot feel teeth 1-4, I had numbness in my tongue as well but just for few days. At least I had to sign paper that if they remove it I will not go to court to them, they said that nerve was damaged and it could heal or it could be permanent. I think it is called paresthesia. Anyway having head aches since that 6 weeks, on paracetamol all the time and it seems I have to have another 2 wisdom done because getting gums infections.

My daughter had was was diagnosed as a migraine 5 days ago that was followed by some tongue numbness on the sides of her tongue. The head pain is gone now but the tongue numbness is still present 3 days later. Dr initially thought it was an alergic reaction to the migraine meds. They are out of the system now and her tongue is still numb. She has had 2 ct scans read by neurologists and they say migraine. Not sue what the cause of the tongue numbness is????
Today I still have constant burning sensations and tingling in my back, legs, feet, arms, and hands (now neck too). Sometimes I have numbness. Now taking Gabapentin 3x daily, Ibuprofen 800mg, Cyclobenzaprine 10mg. My primary doc is on vacation and I want her to give me an MRI order for my full spine. I've only gotten an order for only my lumbar spine from another doctor.
What could I have.....
I, too, had my wisdom removed and am now suffering from tongue numbness. My doctor says that it will probably take a couple of weeks for the feeling to return. It has only been one week and I am already higly frustrated. After reading the comments and doing research, I believe that my doctor is lying to me to make himself feel better for what has happended. As a teacher, the need for clear and quick articulation is essential.
After the dentist gave me an injection of novacaine, I have no feeling in the tip of my tongue and along the right side of my tongue. I am afraid I will never regain the sensation in my tongue again. Can you tell me if this is normal, and if so, how long it will take for the feeling to return? I'm thinking my dentist did something wrong to cause this, although he is adamant that he did not. I have more dental work that needs to be done, but am afraid to continue.
