I've been having brief episodes that feel like my left side of my face feels numbish. It doesn't go completely numb, but I feel like I had a shot of novacane that is wearing off. At first I just ignored it cause it was so sporadic and would only last a few seconds. But it seems it is coming more often as lasting longer now.
It's kinda freakin me out! What is this and should I be concerned??

This was my most pronounced symptom before starting treatment. It is still there, just not as noticable. The novicane feeling is just how I would describe it too.
My LLMD felt like this could be nerve related due to inflammation. I did not show any signs of bells palsy. I'd have days where it was more noticable but it has pretty much been a mild constant.
Hoping there isn't long term damage to a nerve which will cause this to stick around after treatment. I'll be curious to know what your doctor has to say if this persists for you.
