Does The Growth Of Wisdom Teeth Cause Numbness Or Migraine ?

Hi I was just wondering if teeth could cause you numbness in your body...im 18 (I dont know if that matters ) and the last week ive been getting really bad migrains and headaches and it it feels like its from my wisdom teeth ..they dont feel like they ve totally grow in yet and my other teeth start paining so im thinking their pushing them up ...the reason I ask about the numbness is because for the first time I was sitting on the couch and my thumb and index finger started to get numb and then my whole hand on my right side and then the whole right side of my tounge did and part of my face ...and its worring me badly so could that be from my teeth causing it ? Or could it be from in affection ? And if so what are all the symptoms ?should I be worried ? Could it be from something else ? Thanks ! Mealnie :)

Hi...wisdom teeth eruption dont cause numbness... but they may trigger migraine due to the pain if it is severe...but it looks like you have got infection in the area which is causing this...better show to a dentist or an ent specialist for proper evaluation and treatment...
