A member asked:
I had a wart along time ago about 7 or 8 years ago and my mom froze my knee so many times that it scarred and im still afraid that for some reason it could come back if i touch my scar. i know its gone but is it safe to touch my scar?

It's ok.: Touching an old scar from warts will not bring back the virus that originally caused it.
