Hello,

Thanks for writing to us.

Tingling in lips as well as tasteless feeling may be due to-ulceration of mucosa or decayed or infected tooth within oral cavity.

I would advice you to apply anesthetic gel on the involved area.

Maintain oral hygiene well.

Gargle frequently with lukewarm saline.

Avoid spicy foods,tobacco or pan chewing.

Hope this helps.
