Call surgeon: Does your oral surgeon know you have this post-operative condition? They need to know immediately. Please call them.

Paresthesia: Not uncommon. Usually transient. I'm sure if you were treated by an Oral Surgeon that this was discussed with you before the surgery. For more information contact your Oral Surgeon.
