Scarring caused by self harm on a woman's arm. Self harm is physical injury inflicted by an individual upon themselves. It is often a manifestation of emotional distress - the physical pain inflicted serving to briefly relieve emotional pain. One of the most common forms of self harm is cutting, which over a prolonged period of time leads to the scarring seen in this image.
