How Long Does A Scab On The Knee Take To Heal?
my son has a large scab on his knee about the size of a silver dollar, we thought it might be a scab from a cut although it is starting to spread. What may it be. He is a football player and has been taking showers at school after practice. Is there anything that can cause this type of scab?
