What Causes Numbness And Tingling In Lips, Mouth And Tongue?

I have numbness and a tingly feeling on my lips and inside my mouth and tongue, more on my right side. This has been for a few days now. It kind of feels like when you leave a dentist and the freezing is wearing off, but it is staying and I haven't been to a dentist in months so that is not the problem

Hi..
Welcome to HEALTHCARE MAGIC..

I have gone through your query and can understand your concerns..

As per your complain numbness and tingling of lips and tongue can be due to a few reasons like Vitamin B12 and iron deficiency, stress, nerve damage, panic attacks or stress and blood pressure problems..

I would suggest you to consult an Oral Physician and get evaluated and a thorough clinical evaluation along with blood investigations can help in diagnosis and treatment can be planned according to the confirmation of the cause of the problem..

You can start taking Vitamin B complex and do warm compresses for relief from the problem..

Hope this information helps.

Thanks and regards.
