Off topic.
Thank you for your note also. Oh, and just since you brought it up. About a year ago, I cut the end of my finger off (just the tip) then I tapped it back on, and I definitely relate to that burning itching sensation. I didn't have much/any feeling int he very end of my finger, now it's coming back though, but I do get weird burnings and itching on occation. You're saying that would be the nerves restoring themselves? That's what i was guessing. Just curious.
Thanks.

The bone breaks again--compound fracture--with the sharp edges of bone slicing through muscle, blood vessels and major nerves. Nerves do not regenerate.
When nerve axons or dendrites (nerve cell extensions that carry the signals to and from the nerve cell) are cut, over time, they will often regenerate to provide new nerve endings..this is a slow process and can generate nasty sensations while doing so.itching, burning, etc.and it is often hard to find the spot to stimulate to stop the sensation. Spinal cord injuries are so severe and are so far away from the nerve endings that the regeneration is impossible.to date.
