Hello,
Numbing of the tongue after doping can be due to reaction to the drug while it can also be due to tongue irritation due to puking. As the effects of the drug will subside the numbness will get better. You should consult an oral physician and get evaluated. For now,
-Drink plenty of water.
-Avoid spicy foods and do cool compresses over the tongue.
-Take vitamin B complex supplements.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
