Hello,

It was probably a bad head and neck position during the sleep that may have compressed your nerves that supply the head.

Normally, it should subside for a few days. If the symptoms persist for more than a few days you should see your doctor and get evaluated further.

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Take care

Regards,
