Question : I am having numbness/tingling feeling on my lips and tongue. alittle itchy at times too and face feels weird.

I've also had some weird head pains.

I had a brain scan two months ago completely normal.

I started taking Amox-Clav yesterday. I've had three doses for what they said may. e a sinus infection.

could it just be street or anxiety or ?

Hi
Welcome to Healthcare Magic and thanks for putting up the query
All the symptoms are suggestive of calcium deficiency. they are probably not due to sinusitis.
You should get a xray paranasal sinuses done to rule out any sinus pathology.
Take calcium supplements and avoid alcohol.
Any further questions are always welcome.
Follow up with the required information so that I can suggest you better.
Take care
Thanks and regards
