I have one on my left knee. It’s a 9 year old scar (I think).

I had one scar on my right hips. Not too big, and I had this when i was kid. I was injured when i was kid, and this scar caused by doctor's operations. My brother had it too. But he at his left hips. That's odd don't you think ? And the lines of the scar is similar too. That's because we had same doctor when we went for operation.

"A" scar? I don't have A scar... I got many childhood scars, apparently all I did when I was a kid was get hurt or fall over and scrape my knees, to this day I got numerous scars on my knees, and I've got one or two burn scars on my elbows, don't ask why, I have been clumsy in the past. I've got a scar on the palm of my hand, where I fell on a jagged rock and it was nasty. I have scars that I don't even remember how I got, let's just say I'm a little bit more scarry than usual.

yes, i have lots of childhood scars and i hate it because i can see it until now..before i used to scratch my wounds so in the end it will make a scar and leaves it into my skin..i wanted to make this disappear but it's too expensive, i dont have the budget for removing my scars..

yes i have. it's a six-inch scar on my left arm i had when i was four years old. i got it from running in a rocky/ unpaved road using the most uncomfortabe sandals (2 sizes smaller) my cousin has lent me. i tripped while running. i was about to fall when i got hold of a pole that was supporting something on the ground. the bamboo pole broke my fall but one of its nodes made a deep cut in my left arm all the way to my neck. the cut sliced thru my young skin, it's soundless but deafening. it created a burning sensation on the skin that i couldn't put words into. i still get the creeps whenever i remember how i got it. as i got older, the cut became thinner and thinner and only 6 inches remain visible. but not too visible these days coz i'm fairer now compared to my youth. :)

yep. in my right ankle. i got it when i was about 8 or 9. well it was a funny story how i got it. my mom asked me to call my dad from the neighbor and it was dark already. i was just walking out of our door when suddenly i saw a cockroach running. i was surprised and i run and our screen door scraped my ankle. i really looked funny though because i was so afraid of cockroaches. i thought it was just a simple scratch but it wasn't healing and it gets deeper so my mom even brought me to a doctor because she thinks i am already diabetic (because i am such a chocoholic even before). good thing i am not and the doctor gave me an ointment so what was left was a dark scar as big as a dime. luckily time heals all scars because now the scar isn't deep. i could barely notice it

I have one near my knee. I got it when I was a kid because I rode a bicycle. There was a part of the bike that was still hot and my leg part touch it. That was my scar. Other scars that I have is due to chicken pox.

I have one under my right knee. It's from when I fell on the cement when I was little. Never went away. Not too bad though.
