[Be...] Posted August 28, 2015 Share Posted August 28, 2015 Does anyone else have issues with their facial muscles and facial expressions? I was cold turkeyed off klonopins and still having this issue. Should I force exercise expressions? Any advice would be appreciated Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest [jc...] Posted August 28, 2015 Share Posted August 28, 2015 I had lots of twitching and numb feeling in my face. I was quite certain it was very visible to others, but apparently not. It gradually subsided. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

[Cr...] Posted August 30, 2015 Share Posted August 30, 2015 I have a lot of the same face stuff....Not the weakness, but all the pressure and numbness (but not actually numb) and tingles and burning and occasional pain and stiffness....I have it through my body too....My gums tongue and throat burn a lot and I also get electrical sensations. I think our faces are so sensitive because the muscles are so small and there are a lot of them. If you check out this images below I'm sure you will see a lot of familiar places you are feeling things and the muscles that are causing it, there are also tons of nerves that are causing things as well. I haven't found anything to relieve it yet, but mine comes and goes, sometimes it's unbearable, but its not harmful, its all just incorrect signals that will correct themselves as we heal.

[Gr...] Posted September 1, 2015 Share Posted September 1, 2015 I've had facial parasthesia (I looked that up) for 10-12 months now. Feels like spiders on my face. Usually about 1/3 of the day. Can't seem to find a trigger, except stress. I've learned to accept and live with it...sort of. Awfully hard sometimes. I do believe it will get better.
