4816750 tn?1368804670 my tongue goes numb along with my face, I was dx with occipital neuralgia after several surgeries and I know this is why I have it there. Global numbness and tingling is something I have had since surgery very annoying!
Avatar n tn 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.

Avatar n tn I am a Dental Nurse and know that wisdom tooth removal can cause temporary or permenant numbness of the tongue due to damage to the lingual nerve. If you are concerned, I would recommend going back to see you Dentist.
Avatar m tn 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.

Avatar f tn I had bladder surgery 3 weeks ago under general anesthesia and awoke with numbness on the the end of my tongue. Also most foods taste salty. Can someone help me with this?
Avatar n tn The funny thing is the sensation with the tongue that you mention is the SAME feeling that I get since I had the Chiari surgery (craniotomy, laminectomy, duraplasty). So I do wonder, since we had one of the same procedures done....if that is what caused it? Did you have any swallowing difficulties before the surgery? I had cranial nerve damage (no gag reflex) and I was told that the tongue thing may be the cranial nerves regenerating.
Avatar n tn Hi I just had a partial thyroidectomy (Right lobe romoved due to a nodule that they needed to biopsy) on April 16th.Ever since my surgery my left side of my tongue has been numb. I have been getting hot flashes and lightheadedness/dizzyness. I was wondering if this is normal or not. I called my Dr. and the nurse said that this has nothing to do with the surgery. It feels like I have cotton in my throat and I feel like I am choaking. It is worse when I lay down.

Avatar m tn I had a blockages in my gland under my tongue and when i had surgery on it the just removed all the saliva out of it but two weeks after i am feeling numbness on the right side of my face.
Avatar n tn Can you please tell me how long I can expect to have numbness following a rhizotomy? My surgery was yesterday (I have atypical trigeminal neuralgia) and I have been experiencing severe numbness on my bottom lip, the left side of my tongue (can't taste anything but salt), the inside of my cheek (keep biting it!), the outside of my face all the way up to my ear. I realize that it has been less than 24 hours since the procedure but I would like to know when I will regain sensation.
Avatar f tn I am not convinced about the sinusitis and the tongue numbness association. And it is not only numbness that is the issue. You also have an altered taste. It seems to be a manifestation of the MS. The numbness will stay for some time and will go on its own. You have been through a lot. And I am sure you will pass this test also.

Avatar f tn 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.
Avatar n tn 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!
Avatar m tn Hey. I had my wisdom teeth out (3) this morning. (9-7-12) I had two on top and one on bottom right which was my painful one. It was coming in side ways and started to get infected so I went ahead with surgery. All my numbness has worn off except for the bottom right.. it's mostly my chin and lip that feel huge and my bottom teeth do feel the same as yours. A stitch also fell out today on bottom right as I was drinking a sip of water, they're suppose to dissolve eventually.
