Numbness on the right side of the face can be caused by conditions like silent sinus syndrome or issues related to the carotid artery.
Facial numbness can be caused by several medical issues.
Silent Sinus Syndrome: This is a rare condition where the sinus on one side of the face collapses, which can lead to facial numbness. It is unusual and may not present with typical sinus symptoms like congestion or pain.
Carotid Artery Problems: Issues with the carotid artery, which supplies blood to the face and brain, can also cause facial numbness. This might involve a narrowing of the artery or other changes that affect blood flow.
Numb Cheek-Limp Lower Lid Syndrome: This involves facial numbness and can be associated with other symptoms like a droopy lower eyelid.
If you experience these symptoms, it is important to talk to a healthcare professional to understand the cause and get the right treatment.
