I had a mole removed THREE weeks ago, and I still have a big scab. It looks like a booger stuck on my arm. It's gross, and I want it gone. Help?

Scabs fall off when healing is done. Taking it off too soon will just leave a scar. Maybe put a bandaid over it if you can't stand looking at it, but I'd leave it alone until it comes off on its own.
