wOunDS & sCAbS

Itchiness is a sign that the wound is healing. When the scabs begin to break off from the fresh new skin underneath. And all that’s left behind is a light-coloured scar.

There is a certain level of patience you need to muster when dealing with wounds and scabs. If you try to peel off the scabs before the wound has properly healed, you’ll end up with a new wound on the same site. And the next time when the scabs grow over and the wound begins to heal, it feels doubly itchy, like there are 2 layers of wounds trying to heal.

The itch is getting to me.
