There are many causes of facial numbness, including facial neuritis, facial tumors, and it is also a precursor of cerebral thrombosis. Therefore, when facial numbness occurs, it is necessary to be highly vigilant and promptly go to the hospital for examination to avoid delaying the condition and causing greater harm to health. It is also important to identify the cause and treat it promptly.

Facial Neuritis

Many people encounter facial neuritis, which can be caused by many factors. Besides facial numbness, many people also experience symptoms such as mouth distortion and eye deviation, which are typical symptoms of facial neuritis.

Head Tumors

When a tumor occurs in a certain part of the head, it can also cause facial numbness. For example, if a tumor appears in the skull base or the brain, it can further compress the nerves and lead to facial numbness. In addition, if we suffer from nasopharyngeal cancer, it can also lead to varying degrees of facial numbness, but the biggest difference with cancer is that it is accompanied by pain and gradually worsens.

Cerebral Thrombosis

When cerebral thrombosis occurs, it can also cause numbness in one side of the face. Not only that, but the muscles on the other side of the face can also become paralyzed. At the same time, there may also be some obstacles in the same side of the limbs. Overall, if the face begins to feel numb, after excluding the first two situations, we can consider whether there is a problem with cerebral thrombosis.
