Scabs - Healing and Colour

I'm wondering what you do about scabs?
Do you pick at them - when you get one - does it leave a mark?
And if so what colour is it compared to the rest of your skin?
After much research into Acne and healing - I stopped taking Antibotics which were screwing up my digestive system and started taking Zinc supplements and have found any scabs I do get almost exactly match the rest of my skin - when normally they'd be the same colour as in the picture or darker.
I've also noticed any damage to my skin repairs much quicker and with less visable scars left.
The reason I find this all very intersting is - It's probabaly the first time ever I can say I've noticed a real benefit after taking a supplement. We take vitamins and stuff everyday - but who really knows if it helps ... but for the first time I can see a real benefit from taking a particular mineral and looking at the links below I don't normally eat the kind of food that wuld be high in Zinc.
