The middle finger had both nerves cut so it had completely no feeling for a few months. The other fingers had one on each side cut. Since then, I've recovered complete mobility through physical therapy exercises but the feeling is still not normal. My doctor called it hypersensitivity and it has gotten a little better but because of all the scars and the nerves being cut, it still remains to be a sensitive place. Kind of tingly to the touch too. Does anyone know of any ways to recover more feeling from a place that had nerves damaged like that? I've gotten pretty used to having my hand this way but it is quite painful and/or just extremely uncomfortable when something hits that middle area.Thanks to anyone who may be able to offer some advice.AuroraAurora, The first thing I would suggest you do is increase your intake of B vitamins. Also, L-arginine, an amino acid that assists B vitamins in doing their best work. Massaging the area with arnica cream will promote healing and will relieve some of the hypersensitivity that your doctor has talked about. Arnica has become commonly used for MS and frayed nerve syndrome because of these very properties. Neuragen is a topical solution made from geranium oil that has shown wonderful nerve healing properties. You can find it - and more info on how it works - on the web at www.originbiomed.com/pages/neuragen_home.html. There are several other herbal remedies that are well-known to heal the nerve, including the nerve sheath - blue vervain, slippery elm, lady's slipper. However, I strongly caution that you try only one at a time so that you can better know what is working for you and what isn't. Preparation is also important. If you decide you want to try any of these, email me off-list and I will be happy to discuss preparations and uses with you.
