Drinking A Lot, Skin Behind Left Ear Numb. What Could It Be ? What Can I Do To Prevent That From Happening?

Hello, I am a 22 years old male, and I was drinking a lot about three days ago. Ever since then, the skin behind my left ear has been numb. Now I ve read about people twice my age getting that because their metabolism couldn t process the alcohol as well anymore, but considering my age, what could it be ? What can I do to prevent that from happening ? Thanks.
