What could cause a stretch mark to scab and bleed?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Stretch mark: If you scratched your stretch mark you could have broken the skin and introduced an infection which scabs over. Take warm soapy baths and add3-4 tbls of bleach to the water. Apply an antibiotic ointment after the bath.
