A doctor has provided 1 answer

See a dermatologist: Sometimes people have compulsive picking at skin as part of an anxiety disorder. A dermatologist will help manage the skin lesions. A psychiatrist (behavior therapy, meds) will help you deal with depression, anxiety, etc. People with normal diets need not waste money on ascorbic acid.
