No: The fifth cranial nerve can cause face tingling (called trigeminal nerve because it has 3 facial distributions v1, v2 and v3). C5 is a nerve root and goes to the arm.

C4 /5 is unstable when I tilt my head & C5/6-6/7 need replacement, is 3 disk fusion my only choice? Dr said 2 replacements(want) but xray shows C4/5 unstable & now says 3 disk fusion as 2 replacements might cause 2nd surgery to stabalize C4/5 later?
