Side of face is numb...

Question

My friend and I went to Six Flags on Monday, and he and his girlfriend rode about 8 roller coasters (and some other rides). When he woke up the next day, the whole right side of his face was numb, and continues to be up until now (it's Thursday evening as I write this). He's (understandably) a little concerned. We'd really appreciate any knowledgeable answers as to what might be going on, and advice as to whether or not it may warrant further attention on his part. Best answer will be awarded as well. Thanks very much.

Answer 1

I am not sure what could be the cause of this and I am not even sure the fact that you rode 8 roller coasters either although it may have as well . It could be the G force of all the ups and down that stretch your muscles in your face . My only suggestion would be that you massage your face in  the affected area and see if it will resume you sensitiveness , should it persist you might as well take an appointment with your physician and let him see what it could be . I hope you to feel your face again soon and have a great day
