Numbness, tingling in young adult
by drosen81, Sep 24, 2008 06:12PM
I'm a 27 yr old female and am very concerned with symptoms I've been having. Beginning in January, my head would feel tingly and numb for about 30 seconds at a time. It would happen once a week. Over the past few months, it's been increasing in duration and intensity. For the past week, my head (frontal area) has been tingly and numb almost continuously. Fortunately, I have had no nausea, vomiting, vision, hearing, or memory problems. I haven't seen a doctor yet. Should I be worried?

Hope you are feeling better.
It is quite possible that your symptoms are due to anxiety. Anxiety can cause the head to feel tingly and numb. Other causes can include peripheral neuropathy like diabetes, B12 deficiency. It could also be a symptom of migraine and shingles.
I would suggest you to make sure you are not under any undue stress eat on time and do not stay awake past your normal bedtime. If your symptoms still persist, please consult your PCP.
Take care!
