Hi Sony1,

It's possible that the removal of your thyroid could have cause this tingling feeling in your face, due to nerve damaging. But it's important to let your doctor know your symptoms.

Best,

Daisy

Hi Sony1,

Welcome to EmpowHER. Many things can be the cause of your tingling feeling in your face and under arm. Tingling face is a result of nerve dysfunction or nerve damage. It can be the result of an injury to the face or exposure to cold temperatures. Alternatively, tingling face may be caused by neuropathy, a disorder in which the nerves that relay signals between the body and the brain do not function properly.  It's important to see your and explain your symptoms.

Best,

Daisy

Thank you Daisy I had these symptoms before I was diagnosed with thyroid cancer. I just had a total Total Thyroidectomy in Sept of this year still waiting for treatment do you think that has anything to do with it..thanks
