After your surgery did you have a numb lip?

I had my surgery on October 15th and now its been seven days and I still can not feel my bottom lip. It scared me when I 1st woke up cause I thought I had a stroke or something but that is not the case I'm sure of that. I'm thinking that my lip got caught on my teeth when the tube was going down. I'm 25 years old and I should wear a bib now every time I go to take a drink I spill it on my self. It looks normal and all no cuts, sagging or anything like that, I have been giving it a massage thinking it cut off the nerves while it was caught on my teeth. I asked while I was in the hospital and all I kept getting was that "Yeah" look like its normal? So has anyone else had this problem and if so how did it turn out? Thanks A lot :)
