View attachment 229703 The scar might end up like this one on my arm. I tend to have wide, nasty scars.

I should add that those scars were caused from falling over backwards while packing a saw on my shoulder. It wasn’t running, of course, but the chain got me.

Yes I did...I mentioned that to the surgeon, and he said he believed I had some special condition or gene that produced that kind of scar tissue. I don’t know.

That’s interesting, it looked like it opened up the stitches and healed on its own, I have a few on my knee that got big, because I kept running after having staples in a large cut

It healed fine at first, then kept getting bigger for a year or so. It sure does look like it just popped open though, lol.

JB Weld

Had a filling fall out one time, my BIL was 100% serious about putting JB in there lol.
Same guy who topped a tree without a harness, the tip landed first and the butt came back up and knocked him out of the tree, he then fell about 25' and land on top of a chain link fence and to add insult to injury the top then fell on him . He goes to the hospital and they pump his lung back up after fixing the puncture in it and then give him some drugs and send him home. Next morning he has his wife help him out of bed, to her surprise when she woke he had gone to work, she thought he was just going to the bathroom. I have a high tolerance for pain, but I'm pretty sure I would have stayed home after that one.
I'd guess many would have called him lucky, kinda like the dog with three legs called lucky, his dog was named stupid; kinda odd when he called it, yes this is all true.
Did I ever post the pictures of him hauling with his ford ranger .
I joke about him(even though all this is 100% true), but he's a great guy, the type who would do anything for anyone and give you the shirt off his back, that being said the shirt may have a puncture or two in it .
There's a story or two about his ms290 too .
God made dirt and dirt don't hurt, right .

I saw this the other day. From the UK, it's a Moke street legal 25mph max speed AWD electric golf cart! Pretty cool but def not fast enough for me, lol. Engine bay looks big enough to Duratec swap it!

That picture was disgusting, but that is it, I think. Mine is pretty flat, not raised much. And it has completely stopped growing.

Sounds like a fun BIL, lol. I have three of them, and one of them caused the broken collarbone, haha.

Yeah some of those pics are rather dramatic. I have minor keloids myself. Every scar I have takes about 20-30 years to heal, and I still have a couple of scars from my childhood that are 40+ years old. But they aren't nearly as dramatic, just typical scars from injuries that should have healed like very minor burns and cuts. Some of the real injuries like from my motorcycle days and my being stupid days look like they are brand new. A GF of mine had it bad enough that she has to think really hard about surgery because her skin will scar horribly. But, you know - that's women for ya.

I don't think you're a Keloid person, one theory behind Keloid scarring is a possible enzyme deficiency which inhibits re-uptake of certain amino acid(s). The scars
you generate look a lot like the ones my cousin gets - he's mostly Irish/Black Irish and tried logging for a while. Whenever he would get poked by a jagger, it would
end up making a dime or nickel-sized scar. He decided that wasn't for him and is a gantry crane operator now. Luckily though, his scars blend in well over the long
haul.

That’s interesting. I don’t scar up much from simple cuts and what-not you get from working in the woods, but the one on my arm sure did. We’ll see how the one from this surgery turns out.

The surgeon mentioned that about women and scarring.

He is, he's actually not technically my BIL anymore, he and my sister are divorced, but there's a lot more to that story as I'm sure you can imagine hearing what you already have. We always say we were inlaws, now were out laws lol. My sister wouldn't come to my wedding because he was my best man, she still won't talk to me, says if I have any communication with him she won't, I don't negotiate with terrorist, even if they are family.
Here's the danger ranger getting a little decking material.
