			Can anyone help me out, I was told you can't ship out if you have any scabs because they are considered an open wound. Is this true?

			Depends on the scab and type of wound. You'll probably be alright though, just neglect to mention it, don't show it to the recruiter, and when the doctor sees it, just say what happened and how long ago, and he'll most likely continue his rodeo examination, giving the same amount of cares he gave prior to examining you.. (none)

			It's not a big deal unless you want it to be. A scab is not a disqualifier.
