For about two weeks off & on the right side of my head, face, & behind my right ear feels like it has fallen asleep. I ve felt this when I was lying on the left side of the pillow or my head on the headboard. I also have sensation in my right shoulder. Could my symptoms be coming from the pinched nerve on the right side of my lower back or is it possible I now have a pinched nerve near my neck or upper back?

Summarized question: What causes head and face paresthesia?
