Dear

Welcome to HCM.

Understanding your concern. As per your query you have tightness in the throat and tingling sensation in the face is because of nerve impingement or pressure on facial nerve which can lead to facial paralysis. Visit dentist 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 eat healthy diet , eat fresh fruits and vegetables. If it is not due to dental related cause visit neurologist once and get it examined. Doctor may prescribe MRI of brain as it could be related to stroke. Neurotropic medication such as nerve supplement , methylcobalamine is effective to improve your symptoms. Take proper rest and avoid any kind of stress.

Hope your concern has been resolved.


Get Well Soon.
Best Wishes,
