What Causes Feeling Numbness Face And Body?

My skin feel slightly numb on my face and all over my body - I have been really stressed as moving house in two days could this be caused by stress?

I stayed in a room that was full on Paint fumes 4 days ago and was a little worried it could be due to this? Please advise?

Hello!

Welcome on Healthcaremagic!

Your symptoms could be related to anxiety. An electrolyte imbalance can not be excluded either.
For this reason, I recommend taking plenty of water and monitor your blood pressure.
If these complaints persist, I recommend consulting with your GP for a physical exam and some tests:
- complete blood count
- blood electrolytes
- thyroid hormone levels.

Hope you will find this answer helpful!
Best wishes, Dr. Aida
