A member asked:

20y/o female, back of my tongue, roof of mouth have been going numb for 3 days and my lips have started a tingling sensation. my tonsils are also swollen. ?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Numb tongue and mout: These are rather uncommon symptoms for a infection but can occur with allergies or autoimmune disorders including lupus or.Multiple sclerosis as well as deficiencies of B vitamins or iron. Can you pinpoint these symptoms to eating nuts, shellfish or other fish? A severe sore throat or actual tonsillitis would indicate an infectious cause. See your MD for evaluation.
