Abstract

To date, there is no established treatment of facial numbness or dysaesthesia of unspecified causes. Herein, we report a case of unexplained facial numbness and confirmed hypaesthesia that achieved clinical response to stellate ganglion blockade (SGB). SGB might be an effective treatment of psychological-stress-related facial numbness of unknown origin.
