Question 1

feeling numbness/tingling right side of face& body for almost a day. what can be causing this? i felt a pinch on right arm when it started.

Accepted Answer

Need to see Dr.: You are young, so this is reassuring.  However, when your face is involved, it suggests that you are having something happening in your brain, not in your neck as could cause just arm tingling.

Ever had migraines?  Sometimes you can have other migraine symptoms without pain. The worrisome concern would be a stroke or other spot in the brain.  You need to have an exam and maybe a brain scan.

Tic Doulourex: Tic douloureux or trigeminal neuralgia is a severe, stabbing pain to one side of the face. It stems from one or more branches of the cranial nerve V that supplies sensation to the face, the trigeminal nerve. The pain usually lasts from a few seconds to a few minutes. It may be so intense that you wince involuntarily, hence the term tic. There is usually no pain or numbness between attacks.

Have the MRI checked: If yuor MRI was not read by a neuroradiologist or done on a high field MRI machine it might need to be repeated.
