Right after my stroke a year ago my fingers were numb, lacking feeling. At some point they became htpersensitive. Everything feels like sandpaper, even smooth surfaces. My hands go from feeling pricky to feeling raw and back again, but they have been 50 to 100 times more sensitive than normal for going on a year. At the rehab hospital they said this was normal and would go aqay in 6 months or so. I guess I fall into the or so category. It makes fine motor skills with my hand more difficult because of how many signals are sent to my brain when I touch or pick up something.
My face is also hypersensitive. My lips on my left side feel like I just came from the dentist all the time. I moved off my nose after just a few months. It extended into my scalp for a while and now has settled on the fleshy part of my face and forehead.
So, is this "normal"? Is there anything that will speed the process? What should I be doing?
