lobelia321What scars have you got?
My scars:
- Lumpy scar on second knuckle of left little finger and tiny button scar on pad of right thumb.
Since: I was five years old
How? Electric shock from touching an uninsulated cable and inserting into live powerpoint. I peed myself and screamed, and had the sensation of turning around on my axis at lightning speed. It burned holes into my fingers. A brush with death.
- Pink patchwork on left knee.
Since: Around two years ago.
How? I fell off my bike because I was going too fast in the dark and zomped across an unexpected speed bump. I am noting that with age these scars seem to take a long time to heal. When I was little, I was constantly picking scabs off my knee and they left no trace. This scab I didn't touch! By the end, hairs were growing through the scab's thick scaly exterior. It was fascinating.
- Dots on my ankles. Two on my left foot (ankle and just above foot) and one on my right.
Since: They keep recurring since about half a year ago.
How? Water falls onto my feet in the shower and punches holes in my skin and draws blood. Is this normal? It keeps happening. Should I step into the shower with my feet bandaged up?
