Over the past few months I've been noticing an increase in scars...
I've always scarred easily but it was usually just on my legs. I scar from every little thing - bug bites, and any kind of scrape. It sucks, but I'm use to my legs looking like it was hit by shrapnel. I know it will fade in time.
But the thing is, lately I've been getting scars on my face and my hands too. Every pimple I get lingers into a scar...I don't get pimples that often so I'm not horribly concerned - but its my face! Not only that but I have to use an oven mitt to play with my kitten or the little tiny scratches it makes turn into scars! Its ridiculous.
My skin isn't dry, or anything like that. This doesn't make sense. I've searched google, ask.com, and wikipedia but to no avail. Nothing would explain why I scar so easily.
Anyone know something I don't?

So, since I was born... even if I get the tiniest scratch on my left knee it scars. And its a slightly raised scar... (not a keloid ) I asked my dermatologist about it and he replied with " thats what happens if you constantly hurt your knee the tissue is ruined " But the thing is I never hurt my knee before each scratch!!! The tiniest scratch, fall, etc... scars. Its funny once I fell and landed on both my knees evenly the left knee scarred and the right knee healed perfectly. Now that I know it will always scar on my left knee I take great care of it bandaging it, putting neosporin on it... following online instructions but it always scars the same way as even if i didnt take care of it. Haha, Ive got to the point where I almost cry whenever I hurt my left knee because I know it will be there forever... and I have no Idea what it is!!
