Benefits of scabbed wounds

Browse By

Scabbed wounds are a mechanism for wound repair and recovery. When a wound occurs, the body stimulates cells to produce collagen to heal the wound and prevent infection. Therefore, we see a thin layer of skin covering the wound. Later, when the wound begins to dry, this part of the skin will turn brown and begin to harden before gradually forming a scab.

When the skin is injured and may bleed, such as from an abrasion, insect bite  or sting, burn, or   infection, the blood that flows out may coagulate into a blood clot to prevent internal blood loss. When the blood clot dries out at the wound site, it may form a scab. 

Your body has tiny, delicatenerves beneath your skin. When something disturbs it, such as a scab that irritates the nerves, เล่นบาคาร่า UFABET เว็บตรง ค่าคอมสูง, it can cause you to itch. These nerves are also sensitive to histamine, which your body releases to stimulate the tissue cells in your wound to regenerate. This can cause a reaction that causes you to feel a little itchy in the area where your skin has torn.

In addition to stopping the flow of blood, scabs may have other benefits for the body, such as:

  • Stop the flow of blood
  • Protect wounds from dirt to prevent infection.
  • Protects the skin under the scab from dehydration.
  • Helps cover the skin beneath the healing scab, allowing the body to produce new skin cells to repair the injured area.

When the scabbed wounds has fully healed or the scabs have started to fall off, you can use scar reducing medication to help reduce the scar. You should also avoid bumping or rubbing the scar area because it will make the scar darker. Should also avoid exposing the wound to direct sunlight and apply sunscreen regularly to protect against UV rays that can make the scar darker. You should also take good care of your body to help the wound heal faster and reduce the chances of scarring.
