Hair growing back after 19yrs of alopecia universalis - weird sensations
I lost all my hair when I was 17, and had some level of alopecia for a few years before that as well. My hair has started growing back in the last year, aged 36 (no meds, just naturally).
Seemingly alongside this, I keep getting brief sensations on my skin, like crawling, or a breeze when it doesn't make sense. I'm wondering if its due to my brain not being able to process the slight information from the hairs? I keep thinking there is something on me (e.g. an insect), and feeling the need to brush something off with my hand. However, this isn't entirely inline with my hair growth - e.g. I've gone from zero leg hairs on my right leg to three visible hairs on one side of it, but I sometimes feel sensations on the other side of it. I don't know if this is because my skin has slightly changed in preparation for hair growth and I'm just feeling micro changes in the air that the average person is used to and can block out... Or if this is completely unrelated.
Has anyone else who hasn't had hair for a considerable length of time experienced this?
