I've had this one single scab on my scalp, same one, same spot for nearly 12 years as far back as i remember it.... what the heck is it? and why the heck has it never gone away?? has anyone else ever experienced this, having the same single one for sooooo long? It's not very big and it doesn't really bother me for the most part, just extremely curious to know why it wont heal.

  1. I have this problem as well- ever since childhood, I've had numerous scabs on my scalp that take months, even years to heal. What I've found to work with recent, small ones, is to take extra care not to comb over the scab or repeatedly touch it, so that when it falls away, it does so when it has healed. As for more difficult scabs, such as the one you're experiencing now, I recommend going to a dermatologist or a doctor to ask them about it. They may give you a special ointment or treatment to help get rid of or heal it, or they may discover an underlying cause for the scab. If so, they will usually have a treatment for it.
