Asked By:rjuana

I used A LOT of acv, literally all day and all night for 2 days on my mole and it went on the surrounding areas of my skin. I think the acv burnt through the center of the mole and into my skin? Why is it yellowish? Is it like a second degree burn? What can i do at home to treat this. Thanks.

Is it healing? How much time is my mole removal scar further going to take for healing fully? (Photo)
