Can sores that you continue to pick for months get cancerous?
4 doctors weighed in across 2 answers
Chronic inflammation is a known carcinogen. Skin sites draining chronic osteomyelitis are know to develop cancer. You need to address your need to pick at sores. It may be helpful to counseling. For healthy diet: http://www.choosemyplate.gov/., exercise 30 minutes/day, drink enough water daily so your urine is mostly colorless, have safe sex, no tobacco alcohol weed or street drugs.
