Hi,I am Dr. Amitkumar Sharma (Internal Medicine Specialist). I will be looking into your question and guiding you through the process. Please write your question below.
hi, i am just at the end of having impetigo however tere is still a small patch on my cheek. my question is since this started all my teeth and gums on the top right hand side of my mouth are numb... will this come back, also although my skin is almost healed it is still red and is now more itchy than ever
As per your query numbness in tooth and gums post impetigo treatment will resolve as it mainly affects area of mouth without teeth or with dentures. As you are almost recovered from your condition i would suggest you to take few preventive measures to prevent reoccurence such as
1) Wash your face daily with natural facewash or merarub.
2) Avoid frequent touching and pricking of skin of cheeks.
3) Use antihistamine and steroidal ointment.
Maintain proper oral hygiene to prevent gum diseases. Keep checking vitality test of tooth.
Hope your concern has been resolved.
Get Well Soon.
Best Wishes, Dr. Harry Maheshwari
