What Could Cause Partial Facial Numbness With Continually Watering Right Eye?
My upper lip/mouth on the right side feels somewhat numb, as if I was numbed by a Dentist. When I smile, only my left side looks normal. My right eye also is continually watering. I've had seasonal allergies all my life but this doesn't appear to be a result of allergies.

Welcome to Healthcare Magic!Do you have weakness in any other parts of body? It looks like Bell's palsy.Facial nerve gets compressed or damaged, which leads to facial palsy. It is a reversible condition. You should consult your doctor. With steroid medicines in tapered doses, it responds well. Doctor can also rule out any other cause for it.
