Although I didn't experience any facial numbness after my surgery, I do have a spot in the back of my throat that I can't feel anymore. What I had happen is my taste & hearing changed (things tasted somewhat metallic & certain sounds were off) for about 3 months before I started returning to normal. After 5 months, I was back to tasting & hearing normally.
