Hi.
You may have this assessed by your physician. This may be infected or there may be an overlying dermatitis or irritation which could have caused this. Where is this scar located? Where did you get this scar? Was this a surgical scar or was this secondary to trauma or injury?
You may wash the area with a mild cleanser and have this assessed by your physician. You may be given pain relievers or an antibiotic in case there is a mild infection present.
Bio-oil or Palmers Cocoa Butter Scar serum may help relieve this discomfort. Eloise x
