Don't scratch!: The most important thing to do is avoid scratching as that can cause more scarring. Keep your skin clean- take baths or showers regularly. You can try caladryl clear for itching, or take Benadryl (diphenhydramine) by mouth. Infected sores are most likely to cause scars, so use an antibiotic ointment if a sore looks redder or has yellow drainage.
