[|AI|]  Hi Priscilla Aguilar, I can understand your concern. The burning feelings on the left side of the face from ear to chin along with numbness suggests presence of possible facial nerve paralysis or Bells Palsy. It could be due to viral infection, presence of trauma, tumor or other lesion in the facial area where it may compress the facial nerve and have such effects on the branches of the nerve that supply the cheek, chin and ear. You should visit an oral & maxillofacial surgeon or neurologist for the examination and further investigations regarding the problem. If some lesion is present, it will have to be removed for the recovery of the sensations. In absence of any lesions, you will have to wait for some months for the sensations to come back. The leg pain on the right side may be due to muscle spasm in the area. You can take muscle relaxant such as Paracetamol 500 Mg + Diclofenac Sodium 50 mg + Chlorzoxazone 250 mg (Dan-MR) twice a day for 5 days. You can also apply heat and local Diclofenac gel (Voting) over the area. Give rest to knee for some time, and it will be fine. I hope this information helps you. Thank you for choosing Chat Doctor. I wish you feel better soon. Best,
