Asked By:august302 in Riverside, CA

Scars are dark & itch when rubbed, I wear tights/stockings or exfoliate in the shower. They itch like mosquito or ant bites. I pick at them and tear the skin and this clear water like fluid comes out when I squeeze. After the scab grows over, the scar gets soft again. This has been happening for a year now and the scars keep getting darker and darker. I haven't worn a shirt dress in over a year. Or shorts or anything that shows my legs. It's really bothering me and I'd like to know my options?
