A member asked:
Is there a tingling sensation with facial nerve palsy?
6 doctors weighed in across 2 answers
Bell's palsy: Yes. Frequently. This reflects degneration of the sensory branches of the facial nerve on one side of the face, which is injured by a presumed virus in this condition.

Yes, frequently: Even though the facial nerve is a movement nerve and not a sensation nerve, many patients complain about pain or tingling with a facial paralysis. This is common.
