jaw numbness

I am 55, female, my left jaw from lip to lower jaw is numb. I have a fused neck 3 levels. Could the levels above the fusion cause the jaw to go numb? I also have pins and needles sensation in my left shoulder blade and down my left arm to my little finger and ring finger.

Your symptoms are consistent with C4-C5 disc disease. Please see a spine doctor for workup and diagnosis.
