Old scars turned red and long scar on chest has a thin red blood line under it; worried a little.

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Scars: depends on how old they are. the young ones less than a few weeks could signify infection the old ones > 3 to 4 weeks could signify hypertrophic scar or early keloid formation. check with the doctor who created the scars in the first place. That is the place to go first.
