General & Family Physician,  's  Response
Hi,

I understand your concern and here's my advice.
The numbness and swelling on the tongue and mouth are due to Xarelto use taking into account your personal history of allergy reaction to blood thinners.
Should discuss immediately with your cardiologist to change therapy and start another blood thinning med.

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