My left side of my face is tingling and numb. i don't know what's wrong. what should i do?

Maybe rather benign: There is a syndrome termed "sensory trigeminal neuropathy" due to either viral or immune cause, but you might possess an inflammatory lesion within the brainstem, or a skull problem affecting the nerve. Stop worrying, see a neurologist, get an answer, and handle from there. A little knowledge can be very reassuring.
