Sore Tongue

Two weeks ago Friday I had 2 teeth pulled, #31 and #32.  Today my tongue on the right side still hurts. It feels partially numb and tingly.  What could this be?

it could be trauma to the lingual nerve during the extractions or from the anesthesia.I think the sensation will return but it can take awhile to do this.
