Hello Dr, I'm 42 year old man with no clinical disease history. I'm 5.4 tall and 53kg,small frame body ..My concern is that since last few days I'm getting a tingling sensation in left cheek bone face area around 2 square inch, downwards. The sensation is there in the morning especially after using shaving cream, which I have been using since weeks( Old Spice). I don't smoke or drink and all vitals including lipid, thyroid all are normal. Just in March there's was some sinusitis which x ray confirmed as MAXILLARY SINUSITIS and resolved by Steam and ALASPAN AM for 5 days as per ENT specialist.. Could it be due to this? tne sensation stays for few minutes sometimes for longer.. Pl advise Regards Jack

Ans: Tingling sensations are generally due to nerve compression.
If you feel it only at the same place - left cheek, you need to check with a neurologist for facial nerve entrapment at certain levels
