What Is The Cause Of Tingling Sensation On Chest Having Suffered From H1N1 Flu?

I have an annoying tingling in the middle of my left cheek, beginning 2 years ago. I became ill with the H1N1 flu, while caring for my dying father, and a bacterial infection in my sinus cavity. It took mos. for Vanderbilt to get rid of a bacterial infection but concluded it was gone by doing a CT scan of the sinuses. The tingling feels as if something lives in my cheek, comes and goes. Had a complete physical, labs, several times(great dr.), all fine. I m 53 year old female professional, do not smoke. I do have Raynauds, but never had this until I got sick 2years ago. Should I see my intern? Thanks.

Good day and thanks for your question.
The sensation you are feeling is probably psychological because of the H1N1 flu and infected sinus cavity you had. Since a CT scan has cleared you, no need to worry.
Hope it helps.
Thank you.
