Question
Sometimes my face feels numb. What could be the cause? Sometimes, when I’m angry or stressed, my face becomes numb and tense, and I can’t open my mouth or speak. In severe cases (rarely happens), in addition to the above symptoms, there may be reactions in the upper body, such as hands, arms, and chest. When I was very young, around one or two years old, I had a high fever seizure, but it hasn’t happened since I was four years old. In the past two years, I’ve started to experience facial numbness. Experts, what could this be? Should I go to the hospital for a comprehensive examination?
Answer
Hello, this is due to neuropathy. You can use some nerve-nourishing medications for treatment, such as gamma-linolenic acid.
