Hi Dear thanks for your question, your having numbness on your lower lip and tip of tongue following a slap by your spouse on face, Dear this numbness could be due to trauma to your facial nerve, the 7th cranial nerve, which supplies the face, and lies relatively superficial in front of ear. Pain to head and thigh is also due to trauma to these parts. Consult some ENT surgeon, and general surgeon for your symptoms and be honest in revealing you history, as 90% of diagnosis comes from history
