Your symptoms are not typical of a brain tumor, and jaw pain radiating to the ear and eye is commonly due to TMJ dysfunction, dental issues, or muscle strain. However, new-onset numbness in one leg requires neurological evaluation.
As you are within a year of pregnancy, conditions such as postpartum neurological disorders, vitamin deficiencies (especially B12), thyroid dysfunction, or less commonly cerebral venous sinus thrombosis (CVST) should also be considered, depending on the onset and associated symptoms. Lumbar nerve compression is another common cause of one-sided leg numbness.
Next Steps
I recommend an in-person neurological examination within the next 24 hours. If you develop weakness, facial drooping, speech difficulty, severe headache, seizures, vision changes, difficulty walking, or bladder/bowel symptoms, go to the emergency department immediately. Further evaluation, including MRI brain and/or lumbosacral spine, may be advised based on the examination.
