[|Human|] Hello, i just recently today got out of the hospital after 5 days & i was given Flexeril due to my severe sickle cell pain in my back. Over the course of two days flexeril was given to me, one 5 tablet pill & also two 10Mg pills. The left side of my mouth & my chin has now been numb for two days. I m scared. Will this go away soon? What can i do? Thanks in advance
[|AI|]  Hello, I can understand your concern. Flexeril is a muscle relaxant which is given to you for severe pain in your neck. However, it is a typical side effect of this medicine that it may cause numbness on the one side of the body. As you are having numbness only on the left side of the mouth, it can be because of the side effect only. To answer your questions, I do not expect it to go away until the medicines will stop or will be changed. So you can consult your treating and prescribing doctor regarding this issue and discuss if medicine can be stopped or changed. I hope this information guides you well. Thank you for choosing Chat Doctor. Take care. Best,
