Hi Dear,

Welcome to HCM.

Understanding your concern. As per your query you have symptoms of prolonged tingling sensation at bottom of lips which could be due to many reasons associated with numbness and tingling sensation like initial stage of bell's palsy, atherosclerosis (deposition of fat in blood vessels) , multiple sclerosis , diabetes and vitamin deficient. Need not to worry. I would suggest you to start low dose steroid immediately. You should avoid intake of sharp and spicy food. Consult doctor for perfect diagnosis and to find out exact cause. Doctor may perform physical examination and take history in special reference to nervous system. For now give gentle massage to your lips with olive oil or almond oil and take half spoon of cinnamon powder in glass of water to improve blood flow. You should go for complete blood tests , CT scan Or MRI of brain and get it treated accordingly.

Hope your concern has been resolved.

Get Well Soon.

Best Wishes,
Dr. Harry Maheshwari
