Asked By:chongmet in Tel Aviv, IL

Hi, I mistakingly bumped my head on the bathroom door handle. It started to bleed a little bit so I washed it with a special shampoo they gave me, and now it stopped. I am not sure if I damaged grafts, or the blood was a result of the door handle hitting a pimple I had there precisely (My scalp develops pimples from time to time, since the surgery). Do you think that after 7 weeks, It could damage a follicle?
