Smile Numbness on Right Side of Face

Hello Richie.
My name is Maria, I'm 50 years old. I feel as if you are discribing me! For the past few weeks I started experiencing the EXACT same feeling! Out of no where this weird feeling came to light. I haven'nt had dental work, but my face sure feels like I just stepped out of the dentist office. It's only the right side of my face from below my right eye to my chin. To a point that my teeth ache. I did however go see my doctor and he told me that it may have been due to a severe allergy infection I had, so he put me on a weeks of antibiotics. After about a week there was still no change, so he put me on steroids for the inflammation. He also told me that it might be a tumor that is putting pressure on a nerve cavity. Tomorrow is the last day on the steroids, then I follow up with him next week. He said if there was no improvement, that I would need to schedule a CT scan of my head. Hey good luck with everything and please let me know how you're doing.
Take Care,
Maria
