What Causes Numbness In Face, Jaw Pain And Contractions In Hand?

Yes, I just got a bee sting sensation in chest cavity between breasts. I have been having symptoms of bells palsy on left eye and left side of mouth. I had an MRI and they said there was no signs of a tumor. (I have history of benign brain tumor, very small attached to third ventricle wall). Neurosurgeon said he didn t see any signs of what could be causing my symptoms. I also have numness in face, jaw pain that comes and goes, and my fingers on left hand and right hand from middle to pinky stick together an curle unaturally. I can spread them apart, but they stick together and sometimes overlap when i relax them. There are more things going on, but these are the main ones I am concerned about. Having a stinging sensation in chest just happened a few minutes ago & lasted over one minute, it subsided, then did it again for about 5 seconds. Please let me know what you think. Thanks. Lindsey

Neurologist, Surgical,  's  Response
Thanks for query. Bee sting like sensation may be due to cardiac causes . Kindly consult cardiologist and get the ECG done.Generally acute onset bells palsy recovers very well to steroids and tab pregabalin and facial exercises for bells palsy.
Symptoms of numbness in face , jaw pain may be due to trigeminal neuralgia for which MRI brain with CISS sequence is advised to see vascular loop.
Contactions in hand can be due to various causes for which I advise following tests-
Renal function tests
S. D3 level and S. free calcium
Thyroid function tests
Serum calcium , magnesium and potassium
Treatment
Tab Pregablin 75 mg 1 HS
Tab Oxcarbazepine 300 mg 1 BD
Tab Deaxameathasone 4 mg 1 TDS
Tab Calcium 1OD
Facial exercises as advised by physiotherapist.
Best Wishes
