A member asked:

For the last 3 to 4 weeks i have been waking up in the night and the right side of my head is completely numb...it last about 20 mins?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Neurologist: It is very unusual but perhaps this facial numbness while in bed is a positional situation where a superficial nerve is being compressed. Do you sleep on your right side? A neurologist is best qualified to evaluate and advise you if this symptom continues.
