Default Hair dryer and tingling

Tommy,

Are you currently under the care of a doctor? You may have a vascular problem. When your skin tingles, it usually means you have a change in blood flow. The left side of my head tingles from time to time. Another odd symptom is that the hair grows faster on the right side of my head. This could be caused by a differential in blood flow to each side of the head/brain.

My problem is most likely caused by an inflammation in the upper neck that causes the blood flow to be restricted. When my head is tilted forward and to the left, I can gets these tingling problems. if I sleep this way, I have night mares and my wife says I stop breathing.

The doctor says the cure is more dangerous that the cause, so I need to just learn to live with it and try to avoid the bad position.
