Need evaluation: It is impossible to give you a diagnosis here. It could be several things. See a dentist or oral surgeon for an evaluation.

Numb = Pressure: Where from, impossible to tell over the internet. Could be sinuses, could be an infected tooth. The sooner you get to a dentist the sooner you can be evaluated and treated. Feel better soon..
