Not sure if this thread is still active, but I’ll give it a shot. For the past couple of weeks I’ve had numbness on my head/skull. It usually comes when I’m trying to go to sleep, and it’ll start in the same exact spot then spread. It was a minor irritation, now it’s so bad that I can’t sleep.
I’ve read that it’s caused by anxiety. Is that true? Also, I have spinal problems (minor), if that has anything to do with it.
Thinking it might be paresthesia.

Is there a link between Parathesia and a past Scoliosis Harrington Rod implanted surgery ?

I suffered an unusual (for me) migraine in the right temple almost on my right eyebrow. This didn’t go away even after two injections that night. I suffered nausea and then bright flashing colours and lights together with my perspection being changed. That was scary. After a week of no change I went back to my doctor who sent me immediately to a neurologist who kept me n overnight. I was given a brain MRI, and and ECG with no negative results.
The colours stopped after a month, and my perspective returned after two weeks, BUT I then found my tongue tip and lower lip started tingling on the left hand side. Not the same side as my migraine. My dentist organised a CT scan of my mouth and then I got numb chin syndrome also on the LHS. A CT Mandible scan was sent to the neurologist whom I visited again this week. I could be from an old injury to a nerve during dental work which has now got infected. I will be going back for CT scans in six months time. I will have to learn to live with this tingling which moves around my mouth, and which gives me no pain. I am 65 and healthy, otherwise.

In reply to brenda santana. Brenda, did you get feeling back in your lip and chin? I'v lost feeling for 4 weeks so far after getting my wisdom teeth out and I'm so upset. It's so uncomfortable and making me depressed.

Hi Brenda

I had numbness in that area following a dental procedure. Although it was not treated, it went away – I recollect in less than 2 weeks. I agree, it was quite frightening. My own research suggests that a nerve may have been compromised in some way during the work. Mostly, it corrects itself, but can be permanent damage, as I understand. I hope it has corrected itself.
