Asked By:alexdigenova in Aliso Viejo, CA

My friend burned me with a cigar, about 3 and half months ago (Just playing around not like abuse or anything). And it hasnt scared yet, and recently part of it kinda turned darker purple. My girlfriends mom saw it and said I should be concerd because it hasnt scared yet, and said i need to see a doctor.My friends think its fine. What should I do??
