Reply to "Numbness at incision site"

What is completely dead to the touch for me is the area where the stoma was. This area was allowed to heal by the granulation method, rather than stitched, as my surgeon believed that sutures needlessly exposed me to infections. What I have there now is a big oval shaped scar, which has no sensation at all. There are no nerves or anything there. Just a big mass of scar tissue. I suspect that if I was stabbed through that area, I would not feel anything.
