Understanding your concern. As per your query you have dizziness, drooling and temporary loss of memory after waking up because of nerve impingement or pressure on facial nerve which can lead to facial paralysis. Bell's palsy or trigeminal neuralgia can also cause such symptoms . Visit neurologist once and get it examined to rule out nerve compression , neuralgia or other conditions like neuropathy. Go for physical therapy of facial muscles. Avoid opening mouth extreme wide while jawing. If it is not due to nerve and due to dental infection then consult dentist once and get it examined. Doctor may prescribe OPG of .It could be related to stroke. Neurotropic medication such as nerve supplement , methylcobalamin is effective to improve your symptoms. In case of sinusitis consult ENT specialist and take steam several times a day .
Hope your concern has been resolved.
Get Well Soon. Best Wishes, Dr. Harry Maheshwari
