V. Ramachandran desribes a bit of this in his book "The Emerging Mind".
The Penfield-Homunculus is not an exact replica of the body, because the face is located directly besides the hand. Therefore, when a person is missing one arm, the neurons can cross-link, that is when they don't receive any input they form connections with the nearest area - in this case the face.
This is why people with phantom limbs sometimes feel their missing hand when their face is touched, another example is that when the face is stimulated with ice cubes, they feel as if the phantom limb got cold.
Sensory experience without input refers to the perception of sensations that are not caused by external stimuli, such as hallucinations or phantom limb sensations. This can occur due to internal processes within the brain or nervous system, leading to the perception of sensory information that is not actually present in the environment.
Phantom limb syndrome can last for weeks to years, and in some cases, for the rest of a person's life. The intensity and frequency of phantom limb sensations may vary over time. Treatment options like therapy, medication, and prosthetic devices can help manage the symptoms.
The radial nerve supplies the muscles of the arm and forearm and and is also the sensory nerve for the upper limb. It therefore helps in the movement of the upper limb and is also partly responsible for sensory feeling in part of the arm and forearm and hand
A prosthetic limb or "prosthetic"
The sciatic nerve originates from the sacral plexus, specifically from the nerve roots L4 to S3. It is the largest nerve in the body and supplies the lower limb with both motor and sensory functions.

The incidence of phantom limb pain is estimated in 50-80% of all amputees. Phantom limb sensation is more frequent and occurs in all amputees at some point.

Phantom Limb syndrome is the perception of sensations, usually including pain, in a limb that has been amputated. Patients with this conditions experience the limb as if it were still attached to the body.

There is no known association with age, gender, or which limb is amputated.
It occurs when a person feels pin in a limb that has been amputated.
