Effective Scar Pain Management

Scar Pain

Scar pain can persist long after the skin has healed—often felt as burning, itching, sensitivity, or deep aching. It may result from nerve irritation, adhesions, or abnormal scar tissue, and can limit comfort and mobility. At Modal Pain, we recognize the impact scar pain can have and offer focused treatments to relieve discomfort and restore ease of movement.

Common Causes of Scar Pain

  • Nerve damage or irritation – from surgery or injury affecting nearby nerves

  • Entrapped nerves – scar tissue can compress or trap nerves beneath the skin

  • Adhesions – internal scar tissue that binds layers of tissue together, limiting movement

  • Hypertrophic or keloid scars – raised, thickened scars that create pressure or sensitivity

  • Chronic inflammation – ongoing irritation around the scar site

These factors can lead to persistent burning, aching, or tenderness, even after the wound appears fully healed.
