my biopsy sites r driving me crazy. [View all]

i realize that a skin biopsy exposes nerves, but damn they still hurt like hell a week later. they’re getting to the itchy stage, and it hurts to scratch. (not, i’m not scratching hard, just rubbing a bit. but owww.)
i’ve mostly kept a bandaid on, w some neosporin + pain relief, cuz my clothes rubbing on them is…
they told me to only keep it on a day or 2. that’s my normal wound care thing tho, and it usually works like a charm.

is this normal?
