I have a thick scab over my right nipple due to necrosis. I had bl with implant done in Colombia on Oct 29, 2013, my right nipple turned black (necrotic) and now 1 month after the surgery I still have a thick scab over. Is it better lo leave the scar alone (and dry) or try to make it fall? I read on Google that a good way to loosen it up was to apply a water base paste of baking soda and it did soften the scab but the sides now look gooey and the skin underneath is very red/pink. I want to speed healing, I am desperate!!!
