Ok.. So I got a scab a few days ago from some shoes I wore. The scab is right above my ankle. It's decent sized. Well today when I was shaving, I accidently shaved over the scab and it tore off half the scab. It bled for a little while. I put Neosporin on it twice today. Anyways, I was wondering.. is it going to scar? I'm worried that it's going to scar since it tore off.
Ok, while I'm at it, I guess I can ask this question to. A while ago I got two corns on my toes. Well they've been gone for about three months now. However, there are still marks where the corns were. They look kind of shiny.. and when you rub them they turn red. But they're flat. Is the skin there ever going to be normal again?
Thanks.

Ok. The scab/scar ankle thing. Who really looks that close at your ankles anyhow? Yes you probably will get a small scar, but really...... does it matter? (unless you model footwear for a living)
The corns.... yes the skin will be normal, it just takes time.

If you're getting sores on your feet and corns on your toes, you have some serious shoe problems. Find some comfortable shoes and wear them. "Mole skin" over sore places will help. I don't know if you will get any scarring, you shouldn't have been able to cut very deeply with a razor...I wouldn't worry about that, but for heaven's sake if your feet hurt you're miserable all over.

It helps to eat the scab to replace the protein
