Scar Tissue Pain: Causes and Effective Treatment

Scar tissue pain is a common but often underestimated problem after surgery, burns or injury. Scars may look healed on the outside, yet underneath the skin they can cause discomfort such as tightness, sensitivity or ongoing pain.

Fortunately, there are effective ways to manage this type of pain and support skin recovery.

What Causes Scar Tissue Pain?

Scar tissue pain can develop due to:

  • Surgical procedures, such as C-sections, hip replacements or abdominal operations
  • Thickened or inflamed scars, which irritate surrounding nerves and skin
  • Entrapped nerves within the scar tissue
  • Exposure to temperature extremes, like hot sun or cold weather
  • Tight clothing that rubs or irritates the scar area
  • Physical exertion, particularly if the scar is stretched or under pressure

If your scar pain is persistent or worsening, always consult a doctor. It could signal that further treatment is needed.

Managing Scar Tissue Pain at Home

There are several steps you can take to relieve scar tissue pain and support healing:

  • Massage the scar gently every day to promote flexibility and circulation
  • Avoid extreme temperatures, including saunas, sunbeds or cold wind
  • Wear loose, breathable clothing to minimise irritation
  • Take breaks during exercise if you feel discomfort in the scarred area
