Nerves can not grow through scar tissue so if your scars are big enough then yes, you will have a spot where you can't feel anything.

If the numbness seems to be spreading, or is accompanied by tingling, burning or the scar seems to be spreading, you need to contact your doctor.



AD

I don't think it's anything unusual, I think that scars just have less nerves or damamegd nerves in them. If they are deep then it's probably nerve damage.

Not very helpful sorry, you might not want to take my word for it =P
