Your scars may still itch from the skin tissue healing in the deeper layers, new cell growth, or infection.

It's part of the healing process. Stinging will occur in the first stage of deep cuts. Itching is next.

Well it depends on how long its been but you may have messed up a nerve. Not 100% sure though, I'm sorry.

It's part of healing :) Also, I know it's very hard and I can understand you but..try to fight the urge to cut yourself... :)

It could be that they are still healing. If they have already healed they could be still quite sensitive, even to fabrics. It can be useful to use creams or oils to help them heal further.

Scars can itch when you still think about self harm. Mine itched when I thought about it, but also because they're a new part of you. They're a new piece of your body and you're not used to it, so you scratch at them.

they are healing and sometimes when you feel like you did when you made them it makes you think of it again.
