A member asked:
Been getting tingling in my chin and jaw off and on, im here to ask specifically if laying down, with chin compressed to jaw, for hours at a time, each day, (using smart phone) could cause this to happen due to compressing of the jaw/mental nerves?

Could be: It is not feasible to provide a meaningful opinion without additional history, physical examination and may be some tests. However, your posture could be an explanation. See if you can use an alternative to hold your phone. You may use earbuds and microphone. Wish you good health!

VERY POSSIBLE: If you were punched or slapped in the face many times during the day you would feel the same sensation .Any compression of these areas for hours would these results. Put your phone on speaker mode.
