From injury?: Scars generally heal on their own, based on hte type of injury which caused these. If there is redness or any discharge, pl get it checked for an active infection, which may need antibiotic prescription. Feel good!

I had a hit on my head when I was 6 that created a very small scar. I'm 30 now and recently found that the area of the scar is now a small bump, smaller than an apple seed. It's not painful but it looks like a black bump. Should I be concerned??
