A member asked:

Waking up with face tingling. goes away after i get up. had superficial parotidectomy 1 year ago.

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Where is it?: This could be related to your procedure one year ago, but it may occur without a procedure too. Where is the tingling? Since it does not last a long time, there is not much to be concerned about. A small irritated nerve may cause this symptom. Sleeping is a common time to get this.

Dr Altman and another doctor agreed
