Does bio-oil really work? Is there a point it's too late to use?

The obvious choice was right there   Maybe I could have done the prompt "better" but I also tried out new CSP pens here, so I ain't complaining!

I know I don't need to do this, but I want to clear up any curiosity regarding the massive #scarring visible on my lower right leg and the scar running down the length of my left leg in most of my #photos.

I got hit by a car when I was a
#teenager and the impact almost completely severed my lower leg. All the scars are from #surgical reconstruction and #vein and #muscle harvesting for grafts.

Spectrum of COVID-19: From Asymptomatic Organ Damage to Long COVID Syndrome - WHN

Introduction Symptomatic Long COVID affects 10-30% of the COVID-19-infected population depending on what symptoms are measured. (1-3) Organ damage might affect over 50% of post-COVID-19 individuals (4-6) and perhaps more in adolescents and children.

Gestern wurde ich darüber informiert, dass mein neuer #Personalausweis meine Fingerabdrücke haben wollen wird.

Frage an die #BodyModding-Community (#bodmodstodon?):
Gibt es iwas, das man besonders beachten sollte, wenn man sich die Phrase 'Fickt euch!' als #scarring in die #Fingerabdrücke integrieren möchte?

Right before my mastectomy they injected me with a radioactive tracer to see if the cancer had gotten to any lymph nodes, for what they called a Sentinel biopsy. My sentinel node had cancer, so they ripped out a couple of tier's worth of nodes in my armpit and told me I should never have venipuncture or blood pressure - or tattoos - on that side. (Edit to add: none of the other nodes had cancer.)

But after 13 years I asked for a new ruling. Since I hadn't had the problems we were worried about, was it necessary to maintain those prohibitions? I was honest that my true motivation in asking was that I wanted to have the arm available for tattoos.

I was told that current wisdom is that tattoos are low risk for anyone and that all risk drops off almost entirely after a few years.

So I got 3 tattoos last week (pix when they're healed up). All of which I'd wanted for a long time but hadn't been able to decide where to put them. I wanted them visible to myself and others, at least in a tank top. So I got the green light and did it!

I think I'll save my good vein for the ER because I'm usually there because I've puked myself into dehydration and both the ER folks and myself would appreciate having a vein with hardly any scar tissue (very unlike the other arm). The phlebotomists can use the bad arm when I'm hydrated.

Scientists identify gene that controls scarring in damaged hearts

Scientists at Duke-NUS Medical School have identified a gene that controls the behavior of a specific type of cardiac macrophage responsible for excessive scarring during the early phases of common heart diseases or cardiomyopathies. When the gene, called WWP2, is blocked, heart function is improved and scar tissue formation is slowed, delaying the progression to heart failure.
