Not a doctor, but you could use a butterfly plaster, that holds the skin together well, and when it's healed up, use BIO OIL, it's good for reducing the signs of scarring, for old and new scars

i think (only think!) that its internal bleeding in the muscles. Haematoma is another way of saying bruise, or internal bleeding. No doubt some Dr will come on here and tell you Im wrong in a minute. Just a hunch!

Not sure what they actually called but its something along the lines of 'Hydroplast' they are  gel like plasters idea for burns.  I use them for any scrapes I have that weep i.e astroturf burns or blisters.  the idea is you place the 'hydro' plaster over the area and a gel forms over the affected area.  this keeps the wound moist and aids the healing.  Another name (if the wound is only small (a few centimetres across) a plaster going by the name of 'compead' is very good - (like small versions of the items I described above.  Both types offer protection from the friction of your shoe (in this case).  Anyway - ive rambled - go to a chemist (Boots if you live in the UK) and ask for hydro plaster suitible for burns - that'll be what your after

Mid line shift means that there is a mass lesion (a lump) of some sort. It is not likely to be scarring (which shrinks as it heals). It would be important to consider abscess/infection and tumour recurrence. Good luck!

Contrary to popular belief, the scars were caused by a disease called Lupus which Seal suffered from when he was a child. The particular strain from which Seal suffers causes blistering especially around the facial area, which when ruptured cause deep scarring. They not the result of ritual scarification, being bitten on the face by a wolf, getting punched while wearing glasses, or being involved in a motorcycle accident (And they are some of the less bizarre reasons proffered!) \n\nFor more information regarding Lupus, visit lupus.org.

There is a cream available to lessen the visibility of scars/stretch marks. The plastic surgeon should be able to recommend one. Emotional scars though...........

Marks like that are said to be heart, liver or kidney, so maybe you should go see a Doctor. \n\nBut it could be an old injury, just showing up now, I have a line that runs the same direction, but it's not colored, in fact most of my nails have this. As we age, we lose oils that we had when we were younger and we notice stuff that was once not there.

It may be scar tissue that has formed there. I would demand that the doctor due an ultrasound or whatever it took to figure this out.You are your best advocate.

I had a really bad burn in 2003, and the scar is still a purplish color.  Burn scars are the worst and take a long time to heal.  Silvadean (sp?) is really good, but it is super expensive.  Another thing for bad scars is just to keep it out of the sun and elements.  During the summer, be sure to put lots of sun screen on it.  This is for a bad burn...I don't know how yours is.

I have a few times before, and I know some kids at my school who call it "carving" because they cut themselves with needles to get a scar that has initials, or a picture, or they just do it because. We're all 13.
