ORIF (parasymphysis fracture)

2022-07-20 03:25:00
I had a jaw surgery 3 week ago.. I still feel my lower lip and below the lip area numb, sometimes it tingles and burns as well. I'm able to open my mouth only a little, is this normal for few more days or is it advisable to do any excercise to my mouth to loosen up ? Please advise..

You are experiencing dysesthesia. It is caused due to nerve damage which could have occurred during the trauma or during surgery. You can consult me for further details
