<human>: underneath the tip of my tongue to the left side it keeps going numb, only a small area for about 5 seconds sort of feels like a painless cramp its been happening for about 4 days but its getting more frequent than when it first started. My tongue doesnt look any different, any ideas on to what it could be?
<bot>: Hello and welcome. Thanks for sharing your concern. Numbness could be due to damage to nerve fibrils. It could be a transient phase. Therfore wait and watch for two weeks. If you find the symptoms do not improve then please visit an oral pathologist. Please start with vitamin B complex for fifteen days. Simultaneously do warm saline rinses to treat any kind of developing infection. Hope it helps. Thanks. Take care.
