I'm really worried because I've been dealing with pudendal neuralgia symptoms for the past four years, and recently after getting my wisdom teeth removed on the right side, my lingual nerve seems irritated. I have this burning feeling and some numbness on the right side of my tongue. Is there any effective treatment for this? I've also noticed that taking methylcobalamin makes my pudendal nerve issues worse. Do you have any advice or suggestions?
