Hi I had my left sided stroke a year ago I had numbness and tingling in left side of face, left hand and left foot at the time. I would still get tingling in hand and foot when I exercising but recently I have started getting numbness in my face a couple of times every day. Has anyone else experienced this???
Hi - I had a mini stroke last year on my right side of the brain which affected my left side of my mouth and hand. My mouth was numb and tingling when I was eating and my left hand went completely numb. I also get a tingling arm and leg when exercising but on my right side so I know it's not my stroke but just the nerves being super sensitive. If you are getting the numbness in your face, I would ring your GP and ask for it to be checked out. Mine took 3 days or so for it to completely go but only when my meds were changed after I had an MRI scan at hospital confirming the TIA.
I wouldn't hesitate as time is of the essence. It's not normal to have numbness in your face so definitely give your GP a ring or 111.
Thanks for advice
I had a stroke 3 months ago. I have tingling on my left side. It is getting better slowly but is more noticeable when I am exercising.
I also get some tingling in my face which comes and goes.
I just put it down to continued repairing of the nerve endings (but I am not medically trained)
I don't get any other symptoms so don't worry about it too much!
If you are worried I would speak to your GP.

Thanks Jane seeing my consultant in a few weeks time so I'll mention to him
I had a severe stroke four years ago in my right side of my brain leaving me paralysed on the left side plus numbness on the entire left part of my body my mouth and cheek gets worse every time I walk or exercise and my mouth feels like I’ve been to the dentist for a filling.
Discomfort is now permanently with me where initially I had nothing upon returning from hospital. All my symptoms have come on post stroke sadly
