Default Spider web feeling on face MS symptom? Or pinched nerve?
I thought I heard n passing that feeling a cobweb sensation on face can be experienced by Ppl with MS.


Last year a bunch of times (maybe ten? On and off for a few months) in felt like I had a hair/ cobweb on my face. It was from my eye to my cheek. It would last a few hours or an day.

Can MS symptoms last such a short amount if time? Just a few hours to a day?


I wonder if just a pinched nerve. The tip of my tongue will go. IBM if I throw my head back fast. Hmmm

Yes, MS symptoms can last only a short time. I get the cobwebby thing frequently, lasting anywhere from few minutes to days (off and on).

With love, Erika

That was my first symptom of MS. It is a neurological mixed signals sx.

Did it last just a couple of hours like that? Or did it last for days?

Can something be an MS symptom and not last for days?

It lasted for a couple of weeks, I think.
MS sx can last awhile or they can subside in a short time.

I've had that feeling but it will come and go within the same day, for a very short time.

I have lots of MS symptoms that only last for short periods, like hours. They change with the temp and with what I'm doing. I might have a really hard time getting into somewhere but when I leave, can walk pretty well. My DH comments on this often. MS is NOT PREDICTABLE, that's for sure.

I get the spider web feeling up and down my arms all the time! So frustrating.

As far as the symptom duration goes, the majority of my symptoms last only for minutes to hours, rather than days as it does in normal MS presentation. One of the reason why my neuro initially didn't think I had MS actually, but boy did he change his tune after he saw my MRI haha!

Yes, sometimes my symptoms are fleeting. They start abruptly and quickly end abruptly like a light switch, often have sensations of spiders crawling on me. Always check though! Once I was driving and got the sensation on the back of my neck. I brushed it away and it was a giant Florida cockroach! Ew!
