What's a Scar?

Scar

Say: skar

A scar is a mark left on your skin from a cut or wound that has healed. You're most likely to get a scar if there is a lot of damage to the skin or the edges of a cut are too far apart to heal properly. To help prevent scars, keep germs out by cleaning and covering your cuts and scrapes. And don't pick at those scabs!
