A member asked:
Tingling numbness at the back of my head and into the jaws and cheeks lasts for few minutes is this something alarming ?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Paresthesiae: Tingling on both sides of the face simultaneously would not be a sign of arterial blockage,impending stroke or brain tumor as these would cause localized symptoms. Your symptoms might be caused by tensing or clenching of facial muscles resulting in nerve impingement but other causes of these parasthesiae include deficiencies of magnesium,calcium,potassium or even hyperventilating.
