What Causes Tingling Sensation In Face Along With Headaches?
For the past month whenever I get scared (drop my phone, someone scares me) I get pinching pain in my face and now I'm starting to constantly feel tingling along with head aches and feeling weird tingling sensations during everyday movement. Once in a while I also get sore eyes and one will get bloodshot with the soreness. I don't know what this could be? Please help.
Understanding your concern. As per your query tingling sensation in face along with headaches mainly because of facial nerve inflammation or impingement. Facial nerve supplies to area around neck, jaw, cheek and head. I would suggest you to visit oral surgeon once and get it examined. Go for mouth stretching exercises. Try to whistle and blow out and blow in. Take for muscle relaxants to lower down facial swelling and weakness. Your symptoms will resolve its own. If it is really painful then you to go for steroidal injection in trigeminal ganglion from where this nerve arises. Also visit dentist once and get it examined to rule out nerve compression , neuralgia or other conditions like neuropathy.
Hope your concern has been resolved.
Get Well Soon.
Best Wishes, Dr. Harry Maheshwari
