What Causes Tingling Sensation On The Face?

Hello, for the past 2 days I have noticed the left side of my face will start to tingle randomly. It is not constatnt tingling. But it does happen several times per day. Just now I noticed some tighting of my jaw and a little pain in my teeth on the left side.

Hi,

Tingling sensation on the face may be due to Bell's palsy or Trigeminal neuralgia or stroke or infections like Lyme's disease or Brucellosis. It may be due to peripheral neuropathy or diabetics etc.

Until examination is done, it is difficult to say what it is. Use tablet Pregabalin once daily for five days. If Symptoms not improved, please consult your physician, he will examine and treat you accordingly.

Hope I have answered your query.
