I hope this is not too stupid of a question...
About a week ago (this past Monday), after attending a rehearsal, my lips became really numb, and almost burned. I thought that I just blew myself out in rehearsal, although this has never happened before even playing at three times the amount of time.
So, I took the next day off to try to recover, playing only when I had to. And the next day as well... Knowing I couldn't take any more time off, I went back to practicing. It was really difficult! I had terrible control issues, I think made worse by the fact I couldn't feel anything in my embouchre area.
Here I am almost a week later, and have regained no feeling in my lips. Still numb, still tingly, still burn on contact with a mouthpiece... Anyone ever experience this?

Thanks.
