hello,
if you have sustained injuries at that time and you have the problems since that ime you need to take ct scan as in some people you will have late effects and may be theremight be any compression of the nerves due to that swelling and thats the reason why you are getting that tingling sensation in your face.You need to consult your gp for further advice and investigations to diagnose the exact cause.some times general weakness may also cause the same symptoms so take some bcomplex tablets or syrup.Thank you.
