ointment for wound marks - #12850

Aasha

I am super worried about this scar on my arm that just won’t go away! Like, I had a small cut from when I was trying to chop some veggies (totally didn’t have my mind in the right place, right??), and now it’s left this annoying mark that I can’t stand. I thought it would fade after a few weeks, but nope, it still looks so red and noticeable. I've been wondering if there’s an ointment for wound marks that could help? I tried using some basic moisturizer I had, but honestly, I’m not sure it’s doing anything. My friend mentioned some ointment for wound marks that she swears by, and I just don’t want to waste money on something that’s not gonna work. Should I be looking for something specific? What really works, you know? Like, is there any ointment for wound marks that people find effective? I just feel stuck because I’ve read that you gotta treat scars right away but I thought I could just let it heal naturally. Ugh! Now I’m worried I’ve let it sit too long. If you have any ointment for wound marks to recommend or tips on the best course of action, I’d really appreciate it. Thanks in advance!
