As someone who forms keloid scars, I'm pretty sure they're keloids. Keloid formation is more common amongst Africans than Caucasians. I get fairly hefty scars from even mild abrasions, this poor guy got cut deep, plus the bit about salting. I feel guilty if I kill an insect. I can't imagine the depravity of someone who would do something like this.
