Very weird symptom and starting to get concerned...

[Anonymous]

Last week I had some tingling on the right side of my mouth and I kept feeling it because it felt wet (like I was drooling a bit). I was able to ignore it and didn't think it was a big deal. Now it is happening quite frequently over the whole weekend.

Anyone know what could cause mouth tingling on one side and feeling like you're drooling but you aren't?

I do not have oral herpes - never have so that isn't a concern.

Face feels sort of paralyzed? Bells palsy -- a virus. See you doctor, it is not serious.

Look at symptoms for Bell's Palsy and if you think you have one or more, call your doctor today and ask where you should go to be seen. Getting on a steroid within a day or two of symptom onset can make shorten and minimize Bells Palsy.

Agree with PPs. If it is Bells palsy and you catch it early enough, getting seen as early as possible will dramatically lessen the duration of symptoms.

Any symptoms of Lyme disease? It can cause issues with the trigeminal nerve.

My DD has epilepsy and her seizures start like that....tingling of her tongue or cheek. They don't always progress into convulsions. Tingling is nerve related.

Thanks PPs. It's not Bell's Palsy (none of the symptoms on Dr. Google).

I am wondering about a nerve or TMJ or something. Maybe I am grinding my teeth at night? It is the oddest sensation

Then why are you asking here? Clearly you are not giving all of your symptoms to us since Google has ruled it out.

Checking on you OP to see how you are?

Thanks PP. My General Practitioner said it was definitely not Bell's Palsy and referred me to my dentist. She said I have a deep overbite and we made a mold for a night guard... Should be done in 2 weeks. If it continues after the night guard, then I am supposed to see a neurologist...

Is it any better? Glad it wasn't something they were crazy alarmed at. Good luck.
