Question
I accidentally stepped on some mud by the roadside while playing ball and then fell, hitting a stone, and my left big toe was injured. During the recovery period, some sticky fluid came out, and I felt itchy, almost to the point of driving me crazy.
Answer
This is a keloid scar, which may be related to the depth of the wound and your scar tissue constitution. It’s recommended to visit the operating room, but no special treatment is needed; it should recover slowly and shrink. From the photo, the problem doesn’t seem severe. The itchy sensation might be due to the growth of granulation tissue inside. If so, the itching should disappear in about three days. If it doesn’t, you should communicate with your doctor. You can apply Aloe Vera gel or Baiduyang in the meantime.
