I had my surgery done in 2004 and still have numbness around my scar....I don't know if it ever goes away.

I had surgery in 2005 and still have numbness around my scar too, I don,t think it goes away . My sisters ceasarean  section scar still feels numb 11 years later so I think they must cut through some major nerves. It used to bother me cause it felt so weird but you do get used to it after a while.
