8. Other Possible Causes of Paresthesia

It is difficult to list all the possible causes of paresthesia, as it is so common. Previously unmentioned conditions that can trigger paresthesia include

  • vitamin B5 or B12 deficiency
  • magnesium deficiency
  • rabies
  • menopause
  • decompression sickness
  • celiac disease
  • fibromyalgia
  • kidney, liver, or thyroid disease.

People can also experience paresthesia in the mouth after dental visits, due to contaminated anesthesia or the type of anesthesia the dentist used. It is also possible for dentists to cause damage to the nerve when injecting drugs.
