Question -- My lips and insude of cheeks slightly numb.

Ziroc · 02-10-2003, 01:55 PM

This started a few days ago.. The inside of my mounth--lips and inside my cheek are slightly numb.. not tingling or anything. I run my tongue over my lips and it feels weird.

Haven't changed any habits, so I don't know what it is. Any ideas? There are no noticed signs or redness or anything inside cheek or lips.. Could a zit on your face--close to your lips--cause this?

It's kinda like I got some of that toothache pain killer liquid on my lips..

very odd. Help if you have had this, or know what it COULD be.

Thanks!

Talking too much on IW radio?

Hmm, I dunno. If you get really worried, a good idea would be the doctor's, i guess...

Ziroc, look in themirror to see if one pupil is bigger than the other. If it is, you might have Horner's Syndrome. Have you had a viral infection such as a cold, lately?

Hey, I have a zit near my lower lip that caused this for a few days. I wouldn't worry unless it persists.

Watch out for infections. I spent 2 weeks in the hospital with one last summer. It was really a fun filled time of IVs and multiple surgeries.

I don't know for sure,Z. I think I'd see a doctor on that one!

Hmm ... is it restricted to one side? If it is, it could be Bell's Palsy.

Are you a migraine sufferer? That can cause numbness in the face.

Naa.. they look the same. I am gargling with listerine (sp)--the stuff that tastes like GASOLINE!

. That crap should kill anything, but it hasn't.
