Pins And Needles All Over The Face With Tightness Around Bottom Of Thorax After Circumcision. Is This Normal ?

i have pins and needles all over (especially in hands) and a tightness just towards the bottom of my thorax above my diaphragm. I went under general anaesthetic seven hors ago. I also feel slightly weak but i think this is normal. I had a circumcision and the bandages are quite tight but i still slightly feel the local anaesthetic. i am especially feeling pins and needles in my face - is this normal?
