A scab!
either a scar or a scab...
It is called a scar or a scab.
The first stage of ossification is the laying down of a cartilage template by chondrocytes. Then osteoblasts add calcium and phosphorus to the extracellular matrix. When that process is complete the osteoblasts become mature bone cells, osteocytes.
The scientific name for scab is "crust." It is a protective covering that forms over a wound or lesion during the healing process.
A scab forms as the wound starts to heal.
This is a scab that needs to be kept suple with an apropriate cream in order to heal quickly.
Yes, peeling off the scab can disrupt the natural healing process, leading to longer healing times and potential scarring. It is best to let the scab fall off on its own to promote proper healing and reduce the risk of infection.
A closed wound is characterised firstly by a crust (scab) formed when blood congeals. This is the body's defense against further infection entering the wound. When the wound is completely healed, and the scab falls away, a scar is left on the damaged skin.
After the clot is in place and becomes hard, skin cells begin the repair process urn the scab. Eventually, the scab is lifted off. Bacteria that might get onto the wound during the healing process are destroyed by white blood cells.
Your blood automatically coagulates when you get a cut to stop bleeding and prevent infection. The resulting scab serves as a protective layer to prevent further injury of the wound while it is healing.
A scab grows over the wound and then heals.
