A member asked:

Can sinus issues cause upper lip to tingle slightly? i have had a lot of sinus congestion and tonight my upper lip is slightly tingly on and off

Not common: It is not a common cause of tingling in the upper lip. Check for the beginning of a cold sore or other irritation. Facial swelling due to sinus infection can lead to nerve tingling if left untreated over a period of time.

Yes: Sinus congestion can cause a variety of symptoms in the head and neck region including tingling. A proper evaluation at your doctor or an urgent care center is indicated to see if an ENT referral may be necessary. Feel better!
