Question 1

Left cheek numb, scared the right corner of mouth wants to droop and right hand feels like can't grip. i have health anxiety. should i worry? seen dr.

Accepted Answer

If you had not mentioned that you had seen an MD for these symptoms, with BP check and CT, it would be time to go to the ED. However, bc from your question it sounds like you have been medically evaluated, and there is no sign of stroke, It sounds like you may be having a Panic Attack, which can cause anxiety, numbness, weakness, and fear of severe medical illness. A Psych MD can treat you :)

Question 2

When the corner of mouth droops, what would be diseases that would cause it and are they usually sudden?

Accepted Answer

Are you noticing this on you or somebody else?
One or both sides? Need more information. 
Sudden onset of facial drooping can be a stroke or facial palsy. (7th cranial nerve problems)  are there other associated symptoms like headache, focal seizure, double vision or droopy eyelids ?

Question 3

Cracks at corner of mouth after oral?

Accepted Answer

I assume you mean after oral sex you find cracks in the corners of your mouth. It's not serious, in all likelihood. There is a small chance that you have a sexually transmitted disease on your lips, and that requires treatment. But more likely is that the friction and motion of the sex act, plus perhaps the drying quality of genital secretions on your lips, combine to cause the cracking. Lubricate.

Question 4

Cluster inside cheek and corner of mouth?

Accepted Answer

Bumps inside the mouth may be benign growths from trauma or salivary stones. It can also be an early sign of something more concerning like cancer if you have a history of smoking. If it is painful, it may be an infection. See your doctor for further examination.

Question 6

What could be the cause of redness in corner of mouth?

Accepted Answer

You may have a few different things.  It could be an area that doesn't dry out much (licking) and may or may not have a fungal infection, possible viral lesion such as a form of herpes labalis, it could be from trauma of a split lip that just hasn't healed.

Question 7

The cracks in the corner of mouth won't heal. what do you recommend?

Accepted Answer

You probably have angular chelitis though generally there is some itching or burning associated with it but not always.  One thing that can cause this is eating a lot of acid containing foods like tomatoes or oranges.  You might try using Hydrocortisone cream over the counter 4-5 times a day but will most likely need prescritption strength to clear it up.  Your dentist is the best person to see.

Question 10

Have health anxiety. if you think about corner of mouth wanting to droop, can anxiety actually make you feel like it's gonna happen?

Accepted Answer

It's almost like magic. In this case - black magic. It's a bit like self-hypnosis - we can cause bodily changes by our minds - for dental work, it is numbness we seek. We can become nauseous by imagining a rotting food, etc., etc. It's just one good reason to learn to manage anxiety. CBT therapists can teach you skills. If you really need meds too - ok, but learning skills may be what you need.
