Hi,I am Dr. Gopal Goel (Orthopaedic Surgeon). I will be looking into your question and guiding you through the process. Please write your question below.
for the last two weeks my left check bone area has been feeling tight, numb/tingling, on and off. I went to the ER thinking i was having a stroke but the Ct was normal. i don t have any drooping on that side. my left cheeck bone feels tight and numb. what can that be.
Your symptoms could be related to a sinus inflammation or cyst. A trigemminal nerve injury can not be excluded either. For this reason, I recommend performing first a sinus X ray study and then consulting with a neurologist.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
Take care
Regards,
Dr. Ilir Sharka
