My wife of age 32 feeling the following conditions. 1. In last 2 days, she felt like left cheek is vibrating but not appearing outside for me. 2. In last 4 months, she felt like both the cheek are swelling. Again and again, this is happening sometimes and going back to normal. Is it related to nervous related problem ? Please let us know.

Hello,

I can understand your concern. The vibrating feeling and numbness in the cheek can be nervous related problem. Vitamin B12 is an essential vitamin to regulate nervous activity. If this vitamin is depleted in the body, patient can feel such symptoms.

I would recommend you to start with the Vitamin B12 supplements (Neurokind OD) once a day for at least a month. If these sensations deplete or disappear, you can continue the supplements and can get a blood test for Vitamin B12 level to assess the deficiency.

However, if the sensations persist after 15 days, you should visit a physician or neurologist for clinical examination and necessary investigations.

I hope this information helps you. Thank you for choosing HealthcareMagic. I wish you feel better soon.

Best,
Dr. Viraj Shah
