Was a nerve in my nipple cut? This happened 1 month ago

Asked By:lohanthony in Ohio, IL

I got my nipple pierced and all previous sensitivity/sexual arousal in my nipple vanished. I can still feel my nipple but it's just like any other body part now, but no longer sensitive. Did the piercing cut a nerve? I read online that if a nerve is cut it will never grow back. Does this mean I won't regain sensitivity in my nipple? I took the piercing out and I had a tingling sensation in my breast and nipple that lasted about 20mins and then it went away. Were my nerves cut or just damaged?
