I wonder if people experience quote-unquote "phantom pain" with skin grafts. Like, if you get skin from your buttocks grafted onto your hands, then every time you clap your hands does it feel like somebody's drumming on your buttcheeks? . . . It's possible. If a person can feel pain in a limb that's no longer there, I'd imagine they could feel a sensation in one part of their body and interpret it as happening on another part of their body.
I doubt it. The butt-skin no longer has any connection at all to the butt, only the hand.
