Where in the human body are the only nerves that continually regenerate?

The only nerves in the human body that continually regenerate are found in the Peripheral Nervous System (PNS). This allows for limited repair and regeneration of damaged nerves in the PNS. However, nerves in the Central Nervous System (CNS), such as those in the brain and spinal cord, do not have the same capacity for regeneration.
