I had facial surgery and the nerves healed incorrectly so when I touch my face it feels like I’m touching a different part of it. Like the nerves are incorrectly mapped on my head.
I can scratch the inside of my sinuses by scratching my chin.
I had a facial injury when I was 16 that ripped many nerves. I'm 41 now for context.
My lower left lip was totally numb for months. It felt like dead leather at first. As it started healing, everything I barely could feel felt like I was touching another area, and very tingly at that.
Over time, I've gradually regained most of the feeling in my lip, I'd say like 85% or so, and it no longer feels weird like it originally did. When I touch my lip, now I can tell exactly where I'm touching it, albeit a little numb.
So I guess that in the 25 years since it happened, apparently my nerves have healed about as much as they ever will, and my brain has apparently adapted accordingly.
I've got that on my side it's wild.
What does yours feel like? Mine feels exactly the same as normal but the touch is going to the wrong area. My mind has not correctly remapped the information.
Not OP or the person you were commenting to, but check my comment in this thread on my experience..
