Lap Scarring
Please forgive me for posting this here; my results were negative for endo, so I'll be leaving the comm soon, but since it's about lap scarring, I thought a lot of people here would know about it.
I have a medical condition which means I do not scar normally. I get the occasional keloid, but worse and more usual, I get what are called cigarette paper scars. It means they're really thin, and they break open a lot.
My bottom wound from the lap is going the thin way, it's spread out a lot, and I'm just stuck with it.
The top wound is still just pretty much a line, a bit thin, but not too bad.
The belly button wound, however...
The line has started to pop out, and the whole of the bottom of my belly button (inside) feels really tough and hardish.
The scar is a thin line, really tough, white.
This may sound really stupid... but I have never had a 'normal' scar in my life.
Is this just a normal scar?
Does the scar tissue go tough?
I'm just really confused by it as it's different to everything else I've ever had.
If it's normal, fantastic!
Makes a change, and that's one place I really wanted a good scar - I do NOT want that breaking open and bleeding for years to come!
I was sure to take extra time to rest up and heal properly, since I heal very, very slowly, and I was eating well, and took multivitamins.
