Maybe the swelling is just kind of pinching the nerve right now and it'll feel better once the swelling goes down? Glad you're getting it checked out. I usually find that it's much easier to find the worst case scenario stuff online than the things where afterward the person was like, "Oh yeah, that was weird, wasn't it?" (thinking about the horrible weekend during my pregnancy that I spent reading horror stories about my symptoms online only for everything to be totally fine).
