What Is The Reason For Drawing Sensation In Upper Lip And Cheek Numbness?

Four times now I have had a weird drawing sensation in my upper lip on left side as well as feeling like my check is somewhat numb. I have bad anxiety and panic but have been great until 8 weeks ago my house burnt. Since then the drawing has started with a slight indention above lip.

Hello,
As you are mentioning that you have numbness of the lip and cheek, but you have not mentioned the history properly, as is there any history of trauma on that region or any dental treatment done , or was there any exposure to cold, as these conditions can lead to the numbness.
I think you should visit a good dentist get complete examination done with x - ray and then only a diagnosis can be made.
Hope it will help you.
