Physiology & Medicine / Re: Scabs...why the urge to pick 'em ?

I have also wondered why many humans have the compulsion to pick scabs, especially that we do not if they hurt. So there is some type of balance between the two urges.
My conclusion is to prevent scar tissue build up. What do you all think about that? Obviously you should not be picking them like crazy, but a conservative amount of rubbing, and slight picking can prevent compact scar tissue.
