How Can facial Numbness be Treated?

So i was leaning at a counter at work today and talking to someone and all of a sudden my whole face went numb and i blacked out for a few seconds. I never collapsed but when i came back to reality my coworker was staring at me and said i just went white as a ghost. What just happened to me?

General & Family Physician 's  Response
Hello,

It seems that you experienced a possible vascular event (stroke). Should consult immediately with a neurologist and run a complete cardiac checkup (EKG, echocardiogram).

A complete blood examination and biochemistry profile to run further.

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Regards,
Dr. Albana Sejdini,
General & Family Physician
