Hello.
Thanks for writing to us.
Loss of perception to a superficial touch might be due to a nerve damage or a skin problem. A direct examination by a dermatologist is necessary for diagnosis.
You need to have the problem investigated for an early treatment.
I hope this information has been both informative and helpful for you.
