Rules
maybe not the skin itself being weak per se but an autoimmune type of thing? disturbance on the scar makes your body react to the whole scar?
It could be. But I'm not allergic to anything nor do I have any autoimmune issues of any kind. The only difference is the location of the bite. It made the scar flare up like it was still healing.
I suppose it could have happened on any scar. It just so happens that I walk on that particular one, so it's surprisingly inconvenient and more concerning that it has any right to be. Small problems tend to become surprisingly annoying on our special bits and a mosquito bite is a new one for me.
