Yes: There are multiple nerves that branch on each side of our face and infections or pain on any of those branches can cause the entire nerve to be irritated. It is not at all unusual to feel tingling, burning or any number of sensations from this. If it does not improve with the medication you were given in 2-3 days, you should call your md.
