Mild Numbness In Head After Waking Up Posted: 09-05-05 08:43am
Often when I wake up I feel I have a mild
numbness in my head, but my head does not
feel cold and I have feeling in it if I
touch it. The numbness often dissipates
within 10 minutes. I believe it may be to
do with compression of nerves, but I am
concerned whether it is inhibiting the
supply of oxygen to the brain, which could
be more serious. I have not experienced
any major effects that may suggest this
such as dizziness, lack of concentration,
etc, but I am concerned that this numbness
could lead to such consequences. Very
occasionally I also have the feeling of
pins and needles in my head after I wake
up. Can anyone shed any light on this
matter?
