Can anesthesia cause numbness of tongue for weeks after the shot?

I have found many posts from a Google search where people have had numbness on the tip of the tongue after anesthesia, and I am also experiencing it after 5 days. I didn't have a shot in my tongue; I had an IV, and nothing in my mouth, so I found it very strange. Others have had it with an operation that was in no way connected to the mouth, some had masks or other breating apparatus, but I had neither. Phlebitis is a term that means inflammation of a blood vessel. Phlebitis occurs quite commonly after the insertion of an IV. This can occur any where from 2.5% to 45% or more, when an IV is used. There is a wide variation because it depends on how phlebitis is defined, such as the place the IV is inserted, the duration that the IV has been in place, the type of material that the IV is made of, the length of the IV catheter, and on the existence of other disorders, such as diabetes. If you continue to feel pain and have swelling for more than three weeks you should connect with your physician.
