Facial Numbness On Left Side. Was Feeling Dizzy, Pressure In Ears Week Ago, Got Tick Bite Months Ago

I have facial numbness on the left side and it hurts behind my left ear (thinking facial nerve problem). Worthwhile information: a month or so ago, I had a few days where I felt dizzy and I seemed to have a bit of pressure in both ears for some time (thought it was allergies). I also live in the woods and did get a tick bite 4 months ago.

Dentist 's  Response
Hello,

Welcome to health care magic forum.

From the symptoms mentioned,i suspect there is impacted wisdom tooth within your oral cavity which is inf lam med.

A mo xyciilin and analgesics along with muscle relaxants has to be administered to relieve underlying infection.

Please do visit a dentist and get a thorough check up done.

Impacted tooth has to be either extracted or retained depending on the space available for tooth eruption.

Hope this helps.
