They are still healing even though they are scars!! new skin is still groing. they also may be dried out. Putting lotion on them should help!

I'm not sure I can say mine do too, and they're almost invisible. I've tried moisturizing and it does help a bit.

Your scars probably still itch because your body is still trying to heal where the cuts were or it could be something environmental effecting that area of your body.

Itching may be due to the healing process, or some dryness of the skin overlying the scar. It is partly to due to the fact that small nerve endings that were damaged are growing back into the area. Even after they have healed they may itch for a while. If they stretch they will also itch. Check with your doctor about obtaining a good moisturiser.

It might be because they are still in a healing process. But if you feel there is something off, you should go get them checked by a profesional

That is a problem that is not uncommon maybe if it gets too irritating see a professional to see if they can offer something to help! Do not stress about it thought it is very normal.

Probably because your skin is healing. You breaking the skin will make it hurt and burn (which is why most people do it) Just leave it be.

Scars can itch for a while after they're fresh, they will eventually stop hurting/ itching but it can take a while in some situations, it also depends on severity of the scar etc.
