    Could be an infection in your sinuses or middle ear.    Do you get pins and needles in your face a lot? This is an unusual effect because it means the blood supply is cut off to the area and if it continues or worsens you should see a doctor.  I wonder if you really mean tingling. 

    In fact if any of your symptoms get worse do see a doctor but it may pass without too many problems. Take Ibuprofen for  couple of days
