What Causes Numbness On My Lips?

Hi, The numbness on my lips is not that worse. It comes to ease when I drink water or drinks. Then, it get dried again and a bit numb. And one of my leg seems like numb but when I punch it, I can still feel the sensation. so, I guess, it is not that worst but I would like to know if there is any cure for such things. I forgot one thing, I usually sleep late and wake up early which always leave me feeling like numb when I wake up from sleep late night. The question is how should I prevent the unwanted disease which may consequentially follow after all these. Thanks Doctor

Hello,

* The feeling of numbness over lip and leg with inadequate and disturbed sleep pattern indicates stress-induced body symptoms without underlying pathology or neurologic disturbances.

* My guidelines for best recovery

- drink more liquids and maintain hydration
- avoid caffein intake at night
- try to cut down working hours till possible
- if possible, take a break from work for a couple of days and manage outing with friends or family
- avoid smoking or alcohol if consuming
- meditations and YOGA
- sound, regular sleep of 7-8 hours

* Do follow up after 3 days of doing above for follow up and further guidelines in this instance.

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

Take care

Regards,
Dr Bhagyesh V. Patel, General Surgeon
