Thank you for your comments, this onset of fourth nerve palsy is unknow I have had non of the above situations.& I have had all my blood work recently for insurance so they are up to date. I am not over weight actually probably under weight, 102 lbs 57 years old & healthy except for muscular issues :ie frozen shoulder same side as the problem eye & muscle aches in my shoulder blades & now right shoulder.
as far as the sensation on the same side this is minor although just accured so I have been to the doctor. there is no treatment thus far. This really has been a mystery.
Thank you
Dear Drake701,
I would recommend that you seek immediate care if you suspect that you are having issues with sensation, a fifth cranial nerve function along with further. You do not mention the circumstances in which the fourth nerve palsy was caused ordiagnosed. Some common causes of fourth nerve palsies include head trauma, underlying structural abnormalities, vascular insufficiency due to diabetes or high blood pressure, thyroid disease, recent cataract surgery, and other neurologic causes such as tumors, aneurysms, or other injuries.
