Twitching muscle under the eye and numb right face?

Q: Hi I got this problem that i hope you can help. I have this numb feeling on the right side of the face above the ears, the right jaw and under the eye. theres sometimes a ringing sound but its quite rare. I read that it could be stress, bad posture when using a laptop on the bed, or stroke. I sometimes wake up with a bad neck. For two days theres been twitching of the muscles below the eye. its hardly noticable unless i asked a person to look. I got a habit of rubbing my eye when my fringe pokes my eyes when i sleep. Few months back there was a sharp pain on the right side of the back of the head behind the right ear. I wonder if that could be the cause. I am under a lot of relationship stress and shifting overseas in about a month. i am wondering what could be the problem. the muscle below the eye ( wherethe eye bags are located) twitches. Anyone with similiar problems?

A: I don’t think it’s anything serious but the bad neck problem could be a sign the your sleeping in a uncomfortable position try not to keep your head in a position where your neck is turned for a long period of time. The twitching muscle below the eye you shouldn’t worry about either because that often happens to me and my friends so I think it just another thing inside your body that just happen every now and then. For example, if you try to hold your arms up your hands will shake for a second then it’ll stop then shake again.The numb right side of your face that sometimes has a ringing sound I’m not sure of. Did anyone or anything (like a ball) ever hit the right side of your face? Because that could be your answer but it would stop after hurting and making that sound after awhile.
