I have not been on this support site very long and I recently had MVD surgery almost two months ago. I have not had any pain since surgery, but, I am now experiencing some numbness and “tingling” sensations in the area of my incision and also on the side of my mouth and lips where the TN pain was. Has anyone else experienced this same problem after MVD surgery? I am wondering if it isn’t caused from tension, because my right shoulder, and neck are stiff from walking some. And I have also been able to sleep now on right side , which is the side my MVD surgery (TN) was on. I would appreciate any repsonses.
I also have numbness.
An area about 6 inches that inludes the top half of my right ear.
Still not sleeping on my right side as I just had arthoscopic surgery on the right side of my jaw.
Thank you Rick, for responding to my question.
I think, mine might be from tension in my right shoulder. My Dr’s. nurse told me to take some Advil or Ibuprofen and see if it helps. It does seem to be better today.
I havent found anything that helps mine.
I go to a pain management doctor and take quite a few narcotics for all of my pain issues.
Nothing so far seems to help.
Thinking mine is going to be a permanent deal
