Sometimes: Nerves have an amazing ability to regenerate but whether they will in a given situation is unpredictable. Many people who have had injuries or procedures lose sensation in a specific area - this is often better than having pain. Most people get used to this. You do have to be careful about injuries in this area, because you do not have sensation to protect you.
