Phantom limb pain (PLP) refers to ongoing painful sensations that seem to be coming from the part of the limb that is no longer there. The limb is gone, but the pain is real. The onset of this pain most often occurs soon after surgery. It can feel like a variety of things, such as burning, twisting, itching or pressure.
Patients suffering from this syndrome perceive that the amputated limb is still present and functioning as usual. In many cases, patients experienced a range of sensations in the phantom limb. These sensations include: 1  A tickling feeling. 2  Cramps. 3  A shooting, piercing, or stabbing pain.  Numbness and even pleasure.
