i have a skin picking habit and maybe 8 months ago i had a small scab at the base of my butt crack near my back that i started picking off. i'm trying so hard to stop but somehow i've picked it for so long that the wound has gotten bigger and now it's a big raw pink circle from the middle of my buttcrack to the inside of my left butt cheek. i've tried to put vaseline or baby oil on it which helps a bit but because that area can be moist, the scab stays thin and pliable so it easily gets rubbed off from me wiping or showering. i've tried powdering it but it feels like it makes it worse. i really don't know how to heal it at this point. since a few days ago, it feels a tiny bit bumpy. it's started to get a bit painful and uncomfortable. please help if you have any advice
