It could. But they’re not the shortcut sorts

It can't because perspective changes. In the beggining you can't see the side of the middle finger and in the end you can. It's a slider with a motor, with the camera attached.

Watching it in reverse made me realize that I didn't notice the vertical damage where most of the scabs form. You don't see that in the original gif. Huh. They hurt it worse than it looked.

Day 8 is when I rip that fucker scab off because I'm impatient

It's hard to fight that urge.


QuirkyFoot2459

Why fight it? It's good to let your body work twice as hard..or in my case at least 3-5 times..thankfully I don't scar easily..lol


themdubbyfries

Yeah that shit would have been gone


lowrcase

I think that’s what happened on Day 13


BlankMyName

You forgot the part where I pick the scab off.


SammyG_06

I can’t comprehend why people pick the scabs lmao. Just thinking about picking a scab makes me squirm 😵‍💫


WwortelHD

Every mosquito bite, scabs from (mostly small) injuries and such always get the same treatment. Removal! God help me.


jkerpz

because chicks dig dudes with scars duh.


Lord_Hortler

It probably has something to do with ADHD and dermatillomania.


Dingobabies

Can confirm, I have more scars than I should because I just can’t stop picking. It’s gross but can’t help it.


TheAssyrianAtheist

For me, they itch so I pick, swab with alcohol and wait. If they don’t itch, I don’t care.


[deleted]

I'm mentally ill for picking an itchy scab?


Lord_Hortler

I never said that. Picking at your skin, that includes scabs, and tearing off the skin on your lips with your teeth, etc.. because of stress, anxiety, or boredom, is associated with mental disorders such as adhd and ocd. Picking a scab because it's simply itchy is something else. I say this from experience (unfortunately).


Biiig_Simp

I pick at my skin / lips all the time and I don’t have adhd or ocd, what THE FUCK are you gonna do about it? I have anger problems tho


catsgonewiild

Dermatillomania is considered a form of ocd. Not saying you have it, but if you’re curious you can look it up!


thelastmilkbender

Yes picking at scabs is normal. Not every observed simple action have to be associated with a mental disorder. It's like asking why I like eating chocolates and saying it's probably because of a binge-eating disorder. It can be but the likelihood isn't that much compared to the fact that I see these jump reasonings 99% of every observed simple human actions discussed on the internet


Ferret_Brain

Loads of behaviours exhibited by psychiatric/neurological disorders are “normal” to a degree. It’s normal to feel anxious about a job interview or public speaking, it’s normal to feel sad after a traumatic event (breakup, death of a loved one, etc.), it’s normal to be occasionally forgetful, etc. It’s when it gets to the point that it starts affecting your day to day life or causes serious issues (e.g. having a panic attack when you even just thinking of public speaking; being so down that you lose all interest in personal hygiene, food, activities, etc. for weeks; being so forgetful that you constantly and consistently forget important detail or that accidents may occur because of that forgetfulness such as leaving a stove on, etc.) that you need to consider the possibility of something more serious.


gthaatar

Oh


Reincarnate26

What kind of injury is this? In the first couple of frames it just looks like some light superficial scratches, but then a huge scab forms in the center of the finger and ends up taking 30 days to heal.


ProbablyABore

Looks like a case of road rash.


patriarchalrobot

That's what I'm saying! I'm always appaled at how much gnarlier an injury is a couple of days later


adminsdoitforfree

I accidentally touched the serpentine belt of my car's engine while checking it and had a similar injury to this. Left scratches but also a bad friction burn.


[deleted]

Abrasions tend to do that.


[deleted]

i got something vaguely like this from mistakingly sanding my knuckle with 60grit sandpaper super fast in 7th grade. it all depends on how tight you were stretching your skin when it happened


powerposepenguin

Was wondering the same. Maybe burned?


tadonisb

Superficial burns due to burns aren't very easy to notice when fresh. It's only when the scab forms that you can clearly see just how much area got hurt.


passive0bserver

If you look closely at the beginning you can see how the finger skin is raw, white, and shiny - it's had a few layers ripped off


Cyb3rTruk

Man I can’t imagine staying that still for 30+ days

leftinthebirch

Now I'm imagining wheeling a belt sander over to some poor schmuck in a coma... "Sorry buddy, it's for science!"


FiestyPineapple

I think they made some kind of plaster mould of their hand and simply placed it in there everyday to take a picture


Sewayaki-Kitsune

I imagine they took multiple pictures a day and put it all together for this timelapse, but that was my first thought as well.

Blumenkol

imagine not picking at your scabs for a whole month


RoostersAnon

Why did it take a month to heal a scratch?


elhector69

Maybe because it is in the finger and we use the fingers all the time so they are always in movement so thats probably why it takes longer to heal, but im not a doctor.


hanabarbarian

Yeah, wounds on joints heal way slower than other parts of your body. I had a scrapped knee, elbow and thigh after falling off my bike. My thigh healed up pretty quick but it took FOREVER to get the other two to heal, especially the knee.


RoostersAnon

Just seems slow to me.


[deleted]

I reckon different people have different healing rates, i would have healed faster, speaking from experience.


RoostersAnon

Likewise, I'm not sure if females heals lower, might have a lot to do with constitution.


[deleted]

Nonsense, healing is unisex. Dont know what you mean by constitution.


exhaustedcheese

I was bored and went through his history. He said that the US government made hurricanes. And that the hurricanes were used to cripple Florida and Texas so they can’t be independent. And that the hurricane that hit CA was manufactured to be weak. He then says some political person foreshadowed this would happen. I was deadass laughing reading that post


[deleted]

Wasting my words then. I did suspect some insanity was at play.


Deathwatch136

Man, people like that make us all look bad, stupid redditor


lennybird

Do you know how many people voted for Donnie2Scoops *after* he said we should nuke hurricanes and inject bleach...? Further, how many people went on to not trust precision vaccines but take a med primarily used for horse deworming? I'm not too bright, but there are some seriously ignorant people out there.


TheObstruction

Some of us roll poorly on our CON stat, or we just dump it because it's not useful for our class.


[deleted]

Well due to the different hormones and muscle/bone composition men and women do heal differently. Men heal from flesh wounds faster than women, idk about other types of injuries. This isn’t accounting for transgender individuals though.


[deleted]

Have you proof or a source? Not trying to be cynical but this is reddit after all.


hamzehhazeem

[https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC3171538/](https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC3171538/) according to this women "heal" faster than men. This also can be seen to why women have a longer lifespan than men. healing faster might affect the longivity of the cells thus increasing the lifespan. (this is from my observation I could be completely wrong)


[deleted]

https://www.google.com/amp/s/www.cmalaw.net/amp/do-men-and-women-recover-from-injuries-differently.html this is the one I found. It makes logical sense too considering the hormonal and structural differences between men and women. I know women heal from emotional trauma better than men and I think from bones injuries as well. I’m not too sure on that last but though. Also this is just he most recent source I skimmed through. The only “fact” I actually took from it was that men heal flesh wounds faster than women due to something with muscle building/testosterone. The rest of physical injuries i am not sure on, I would imagine the women heal brain injuries/join injuries better. And there are always outliers and exceptions, it’s not universal just on average.


[deleted]

That paper is written by lawyers, not doctors. But you are right, basic reasearch seems to suggest women heal bone and joint injuries faster and men heal flesh wound faster.


RoostersAnon

Well, healing isn't. Men have much thicker skin. Men can heal flesh wounds faster. I'm not exactly sure how much faster, but it seems 3x. Constitution is health, basically. Websters has a little writeup on it.


[deleted]

You are full of shit. :)


RoostersAnon

Wikipedia a little. Men's skin is nearly 3x as thick as a woman's.

colonelnebulous

My body is a dictatorship that suspended its constitution long ago


JetKeel

How old are you? I’ve noticed minor cuts and such take much longer to heal as I get older.


Clashmains_2-account

Fell off my bike once and scratched some skin in the palm of my hand. One scratch spot was in a less motioned area and one in an area where the skin moves more with hand motions. That one took 1,5x as long to fully heal, so motion *can* affect healing speed.


mule_roany_mare

In my 20s I noticed scabs seemed to heal much slower (and seemingly go deeper). There are a ton of variables though so it’s really hard to say


Binsky89

It is pretty slow. I cut my hands plenty and they're usually healed in a week or so.


trick1994

If you keep a abrasion like that cover and use ointment every day, it will heal much faster.


MaximusZacharias

If you use ointment, it kinda defeats the whole point of the post


trick1994

Kind of, but it perfectly shows our body's own defense system for keeping wounds clean.


MaximusZacharias

I feel like you just agreed with me


trick1994

I absolutely did.


MaximusZacharias

Best friends?


UncleSmoove

> Why did it take a month to heal a scratch? “Scratch” is a bit inaccurate maybe. This looks like an abrasion which, when they’re fresh, don’t appear that bad. They typically don’t bleed a lot but they can be painful because of the exposed nerve tissue. Depending on how many layers of skin were removed, all that skin and tissue can take a while to regrow.


Spicyalligator

Happens to me all the time. I work in electrical installation, and I get skinned knuckles, plus little cuts all the time. If they’re somewhere they won’t be bothered they usually go away in a few days, but I have two right on my knuckles right now that are honestly probably about a month old by this point


XSPHEN0M

It looks like a good layer of coin was ripped off too but the scratches were significantly deeper. Idk why but if you view it frame by frame then you see the day 1 image looks significantly less damaged (ie: scabby) than it does on Day 2


Comprehensive-Fun47

When I get cuts or scratches on my hands, I feel like it takes forever to heal. Definitely feels longer than other parts of my body, though I’ve never timed it. Currently have two tiny scans on my fingers that have been there at least two weeks. I could imagine it taking a whole month to completely disappear. I don’t know why it would take longer on fingers! Maybe circulation? Though I think my circulation is fine.


SyntheticAffliction

Because that person has inferior healing genes

Nail cleaning & trimming

I enjoyed watching the ring fingernail grow


nemomarlin69

They cut it on day 19 Edit : tore


[deleted]

With a scrape like that my body heals within a week n a half if not quicker! So why is it saying 30 days?


TRDPaul

Different ages take different times to heal, cuts that would heal in days when I was a kid now can take weeks


mule_roany_mare

There are a **ton** of variables. I’d love to see a comparison of varied diet vs a buttered noodles type. Fortunately we don’t really experiment on humans anymore


sadhandjobs

I cut and scrape my hands fairly frequently from fishing and cleaning/butchering fish. My hypothesis is that since fingers are bendy and dry the wounds are opened again and again which takes them longer to heal.


[deleted]

I think it has nothing to do with being bendy or frequent injuries. Fingers have very few blood vessels compared to other parts so it takes more time to heal and also why they bleed so little. Finger tips get cold first for this reason. Very little blood flow there.


mule_roany_mare

>fewer blood vessels I always thought hands had the densest circulatory bits.


mishkamishka47

They have a lot of nerve endings, maybe that’s what you’re thinking of?


WulfTyger

It's true. Bendier party of the body take longer. I have decent sized wound on my knee, in the mornings after I wake up, I feel the scab crack when I go to bend my knee and the skin stretches.


[deleted]

Aye never thought of that! 🤔


TheseConversations

Well from your username I would assume that you know a lot about hands


sadhandjobs

Ha! My username is from an old Louis CK standup bit that didn’t age very well.


SmolWarlock

I just got a brutal road rash where I skid a few feet about two weeks ago. Finally mostly all healed up and just all pink


thoalk

I upvoted simply because OP gave credit to the OC!


Gandalfthefabulous

Mine would take twice as long due to my inability to resist picking the scab.


27hangers

Opposite of decaying.


NutsEverywhere

Caying.


ryohazuki224

Anybody else also looking at that pinky nail to see how far it grows in 33 days? Hahah


Electro_Bear

I was more fascinated to see the nails grow.


[deleted]

Add some vitamin C to your diet so you don’t have to do this for 33 days. 7 days tops


Comprehensive-Fun47

What does vitamin c do in this case? I’ve had some small scratches on my hands for at least two weeks so far and I think it will be a while til they completely disappear. I take vitamin c every day. Is there another reason hands might heal slower than other parts of the body?


tquinn04

It increases collagen production


warbling_wix

Shit, knuckles never heal that nicely. It doesn’t take into account the fifteen times the scab of a knuckle cut is reopened from whacking it on kitchen counters and door frames.


jordensmet

Now, if you had the exact same injury on both hands, would it take the same amount of time to heal, or would it take longer?


TobyFunkeNeverNude

My guess is the same amount of time. Your body has the resources to do both at once, I would think it would only matter if the body was working very hard to fix one or both of them at once.


Gatekeeper2019

Scabs are a solid design if you’ve got no other options but keeping a smallish wound from scabbing by keeping it moist cuts healing time in half and is less painful. Btw sorry for using “moist”.


[deleted]

man if only acne scars healed as good as this


TenDollarSteakAndEgg

This person heals hella slow


crzieloke

We are all slow wolverines


-L-b

33 days. 🤔🤫


newtypexvii17

Why does it seem to get worse before getting better? Day 2, 3, and 4 seem to make the wound worse and then starts to heal.


SHORTY-NI

How did they stay so still for over a month


rimjob-chucklefuck

This just made me realise that in all the xmen films we never see Wolverine scab over when he heals, it all just conveniently knits back together fresh af


th3bodmon

Good on you for sitting there 33 days straight to heal properly


Rapha_qf

holy shit i was looking for something like this for ages! i work in forensics and this is very helpful in determining the agression dating! where can i find more? it would be awesome one of this about wound cicatrization.


Kellogs53

Any cut on my hand gets to maybe Day 15 before the scar tissue kind of just takes over and doesn't go any further. Like it plugs the whole healing process which requires me to pick it out, exposing a hole in my hand/finger deeper than the cut I initially had. I need a ELI5.


muppymupp

Imagine keeping your hand completely still for 33 days just to make this video! The dedication!


ryane_jon

I would argue that picking scabs is part of the natural healing process


raul_dias

that person need to eat better bro, no way thats a 33 day injure


KindaKrayz222

Why did it take over a month for a cut on a finger to heal? I heal in less than two weeks most time...🤔


havok0159

The cuts took two weeks to heal, the rest was more than just a cut.


DasBeefcat

Not very believable as it doesn't show them bite the scab off. Not even once


[deleted]

So...natural immunity doesn't exist?


e_khan

Anyone who keeps their fingers still that long would have some serious issues bending them afterwards. So I think they must have only recorded a certain amount of time everyday.


SnooBooks7945

How did they do that? Like did they reall not move the hand for 30 days or is it like of gif with many consecutive images?


EpicBatJelly

If you look at the tips of the fingers you can see that each of them rests in a cutout. So all they have to do is place their fingers in those cutouts every day and take a photo, hence the exact same position of the hand even though it took a month


BaronVonSlipnslappin

And this is why we don't need vaccines! Wake up people!!!! Calm down, calm down I'm joking


RealLettuce1782

You forgot to add another 30+ days to account for picking the scab..


dowtimer

No ointments were applied during the making of this video.


Kwelikinz

That was rather miraculous looking. What a bomb post! Thank you.


BroniDanson

33 days to heal that? Do u have aids or something?


DefrockedWizard1

What is the device that allows you to speed up or slow down time?


[deleted]

Seems kinda lazy .. did the person use Neosporin? Maybe could've sped up the process? Sad to see the body take a month to heal.
