Hi,I am Dr. Shanthi.E (General & Family Physician). I will be looking into your question and guiding you through the process. Please write your question below.
What Causes Tingling And Throbbing Sensation On Left Side Of Face?
Left side of face( in front of ear,jaw, up to eye socket and some of cheek) feels like after bening slapped, tingling and some throbbing. I have been going to pt for an elevated rib on that side and shoulder pain. Could the nerves be compressed and causing this sensation?
I have gone through your query and can understand your concerns..
As per your complain and presentation of symptoms it looks like nerve compression or nerve injury secondary to trauma causing inflammation of the nerve leading to tingling sensation and throbbing.. Many a times such conditions are transient and resolve soon but in case if the symptoms aggravate and there are symptoms of episodes of electric shock like pain it can be due to Trigeminal Neuralgia.. As for now you can start taking Multivitamin supplements and do warm compresses over the affected area.. In case if you do not find any improvement consult a Neurologist and get evaluated..
Hope this information helps..
Thanks and regards.. Dr. Honey Nandwani Arora.
