Mouth numbness/tingling?

Answer 1

As you have asked in diabetes I assume you are diabetic. Some people get the tingling as a warning of a hypo. Next time you get it try testing your blood sugar and see if its connected. Otherwise it may be wise to go and discuss it with a doctor.

Answer 2

If you are diabetic then it could be from low blood sugar, a potassium imbalance, or neuropathy. The only place neuropathy does not get to are the organs. Fenugreek is an herb that helps. Am including the following for your benefit--

I realize that conventional health care is necessary and appropriate. That having been said, there are many things WE can do to overcome type II diabetes, and improve life as a Type I diabetic. I've been researching alternative medicine, and the amount of help that's available to diabetics is amazing.

Natural remedies are quite effective, and include:

Cinnamon
Bitter Melon
Gymnema Sylvestre
Nopal cactus
American Ginseng
Fenugreek
Chromium picolinate

Cinnamon regulates glucose, and has a polyphenol compound called MHCP that mimics insulin and activates cell receptor sites. A quarter teaspoon twice daily makes a difference. Fenugreek increases blood flow and inhibits the growth of infectious organisms. Everything on the list has a use in fighting diabetes. Learn how to use these herbs and don't fall victim to diabetes needlessly.You can find out about about them on line, or in a book I read cover to cover--

"One Son's Quest for the Cause and Cure of Diabetes", ISBN 7890766313

The author, a doctor, lost his mother to diabetes and spent the next 20 years finding a way to overcome it. My brother was dying of diabetes, and I was just starting to need insulin when we came across this definitive work which came out in February 2005. We both lead mostly normal lives now. It's a life saver, and the best money you'll ever spend on the subject if you decide to go that way.
You might want to check Abe Books, Alibri's, or Amazon.com for a good used copy cheap. I bought mine new, and I think it was about $35. I don't get any money from anybody for telling you this--just want to help, and the techniques in this book is what made the difference for me and mine. Best of luck.

Answer 3

If you have panic attacks, or periods of rapid breathing, (hyperventilation), mouth numbness and tingling is the classical symptom. Other conditions such as Diabetes can cause neuropathy as well (numbness and tingling).

Answer 4

I presume you are diabetic. Usually this is the sign of a hypo. When this happens check your blood sugar. If your mouth is constantly numb then I need you need a visit to the doctor to have it checked out. It may be caused by neuropathy

Answer 5

Did you hit your head? Perhaps fell and jarred your neck? Did you sleep wrong? If this persists, quit messing with Answers and see a physician immediately. Numbness is not normal. On the lessor end of the scale, perhaps you have a bad sinus infection. I've had some that leave me so dizzy I can't walk. Hope you feel better!

Answer 6

I've seen people that are hyperventilating (for whatever reason) and the hallmark complaint is tingling around the lips, and mouth.

Answer 7

You don’t have to get worried about it. It could be because there is not enough blood circulation due to perhaps disuse atrophy or perhaps due to the fact that part of your body was at rest for two or three hours. You can find good home remedies for this. I did find some at http://ailments.in/peripheralneuropathy.html

Answer 8

Hypo. uusually a bad one. Sometimes takes 10-15 minutes to get better.

Answer 9

If you are diabetic then it could be from a low sugar or another thing called Neuropathy. The only place Neuropathy does not get to are our lungs. Anywhere else, yes.
