Asked By:vladis004 in Lebanon, TN

I'm 17 days post FUE HT and most scabs fell off by the 10th day. Now I'm seeing something white on the middle of the transplanted hair not on the scalp but it's not falling except with the hair. What is that.. should i remove it with a comb? I removed some of them by rubbing my hair gently did I damage my grafts? Thank you.
