TWR Posted May 2, 2013 Share Posted May 2, 2013 One thing I love about the practice of Family Medicine as that everyday you get to see something different. Now after 27 years I thought I had heard of, read about, or seen almost everything but yesterday was one for the books. Without a lot of detail the cc was numbnes to whole chin and radiates to lower lip. She had called her uncle, an MD and told her she may have "Numb Chin Syndrome". Look it up. PS I guess if you practice Oncology you know this. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

rcdavis Posted May 2, 2013 Share Posted May 2, 2013 Thank you. I too had not heard of this. In fact I can think of a patient who had it and I missed it.. Another case of you cannot diagnose that which you do not know.. And your post has increased my data base. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
