Hi, this is my first time here, and I figured I'd post my issues. I'm a 34 yr old male. About 1 1/2 weeks ago I started getting white painful bumps on my tongue, they came and went almost daily, then about a week ago the tip of my tongue started going numb, then the left side of my jaw and face started 'falling asleep', sometimes it's worse then others. I am also having very dry mouth as well. On 8-1, I went to my dentist who did a screening, I just recently quit chewing tobacco, and could not find anything wrong, so they sent me to an oral surgeon. I went to the oral surgeon today, and she did not see anything abnormal in my mouth or on the x-rays, I do have an impacted wisdom tooth, on the top left. I also went to my primary care Dr. on 8-1, and she thought maybe it could be a virus in the herpes family and put me on anti-virus med. which hasn't helped at all.
I am also having occasional tingling in my left arm, last 2 fingers on that hand and lower forearm.
Sorry for the length of the post...anybody have any suggestions for me??

Welcome Baumer!!!

I get the tongue sx on a smaller scale. It always feels like I burned the tip of it on a hot pizza or something!

Sorry I can't help. Glad you found us, though. I'm sure someone will have some good input.

My son's problem was a tooth problem just like your's ,he got it out no more
problem..But that was him, but over the years i've found out how much damage a tooth can cause. Sue
