Hello,

* As per my clinical experience, numbness in lips and jaws indicate manifestations of vitamin B 12 and folate deficiency most likely.

* However, the complete blood count study and level of vitamin B 12 and folate in the serum are very vital to answer this query in more details.

* The supplements of multi vitamins, minerals, anti oxidants are best way to solve this numbness over a period of time.

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Take care

Regards,
Dr. Bhagyesh V. Patel
