Will I have permanent bruising from massaging my scar tissue? (Photo)

Asked By:D_C_D09 in Grand Rapids, Michigan

Hello, recently I have been massaging my scar tissue on a 2 year old operation site (gynecomastia) for almost 3-4 months now. I have been kind of obsessing over the lumpy scar tissue under my skin, wanting it to not be something hard when I pinch it, so I have been massaging, pinching, twisting, rolling the sight with my fingers every day. I do think it worked to a degree as of recently, and haven't been doing it the past 5 days, but I worry if i caused permanent discoloring to the skin.
