Joined: Oct 2005 Posts: 126 | My wife has been complaining about numbness in the floor of the mouth on the left side extending into the tongue.
She had surgery to remove an SCC tumor on the left later tongue in March 2005 which was followed by chemoradiation.
Even though we had a couple of scares since then and one additional surgery in December 2006 to remove another tongue growth which turned out to be all scar tissue there has not been any sign of cancer. She also gets a CT scan every 6 months.
I would like to ask if the any of the forum members have experiences this type of numbnesses as we are concerened about it.
We have an appointment next week with our ENT for an evaluation of this problem.
Thank you.
