Putting vitamin E oil on it will help it fade, as will time. You can't get it to go away forever, though, especially if you're going to keep sucking your thumb.

Put a bandaid over it, and put hotsauce on the bandaid so you don't suck it

Good luck with finding a gf
The scar is the least of your worries mate.

It's a scar for a reason. You can't really get rid of it.

There's ointments that will fade the scar but it's not likely that it would go away completely.
And if you DO put ointment on the scar, then I wouldn't recommend sucking on your thumb.....

Maybe that bio-oil if you really are desperate but Vitamin E or lavender oil can help. ^^ ^^.

my younger brother used to suck his thumb too......he eventually grew out of it as you will too.......no big deal.....as for the scar....well over time it might slightly fade or get small depending on how big it is now....more than likely it won't go away completely....that's just the way it is.....least you spend like a lot of money getting plastic surgery....that might help ....talk to a doc........we're all still learning here at live wire.........
