Im experiencing some numbness, (my lips) and wonder how serious is this? Its been for about 2 days now. Im 46 yrs old. I have high blood pressure and cholesterol. Would taking baby asperin help? I dont have insurance. Should I just wait and hope it gets better? How serious is this? Thanks to all who answer.

can you call your primary dr.....& explain that you don't have insurance? Can you get to a Walgreens or some other facility with a blood pressure machine? Please don't take chances!

I have had numbness in my face due to a sinus infection pressing on a nerve. I have also had dental pain as a result of nerve compression with sinus issues. I hope it's something as simple as that!

Put a call in to your doctor, even if you don't have insurance then you should still at least get a call back letting you know what to do.

I would consult your MD soon. Could be an abnormal electrolyte imbalance.

My bottom right lip goes numb when I am stressed, apparently nothing is wrong with me. Okay nothing is wrong with me that would cause that lip to go numb.

Still if you can go to Walgreens or some clinic of the sort they can rule out anything serious on the cheap.
