Lips may become numb after eating puffer fish due to the presence of tetrodotoxin, a potent neurotoxin found in some species of puffer fish. This toxin can block sodium channels in nerve cells, leading to paralysis and loss of sensation, particularly in the mouth and lips. If consumed improperly prepared, puffer fish can cause serious poisoning, which is why it is considered a delicacy only in certain cultures, where trained chefs prepare it safely.
What causes your lips to swell and go numb

The reason a persons lips go numb when playing trumpet is usually because they pull back on the trumpet, stopping the blood circulation to the lips. If you find that this is the case, be conscious of this when you practice. You might find that initially your range is somewhat reduced but with regular practice, the muscles that make up your mouth will become stronger and you will be able to play higher than you could when you were pulling back on the trumpet.
something cold like ice cream or an ice block ( the best way though is to get a needle XD)
BOTOX injections are not used on the lips. If they were, the patients lips would go numb and not work, since BOTOX is a relaxer. This is because BOTOX is used to deliver the appearance of smoother skin by relaxing the facial muscles that create wrinkles. If a patient wanted fuller lips, they would need to inquire with a surgeon who offers Dermal Fillers like Juvederm.
