Is scar tissue build up suppose to hurt?

[6Damn6Ram6]

I have quite a bit of scar tissue on my left quad because i am an idiot Needless to say, lesson learned. When ever i dead lift or shrug, the bar has to rest and push up against my quads...it then hurts and swells up a bit. it goes away after an hour or two. It also hurts if i use my finger to push on the lump of scar tissue. I wanted to know if scar tissue is suppose to hurt? What can it do to nerves in the area? Thank you

I have scar tissue in both glutes. They act up from time to time and can be uncomfortable sometimes but as far as "hurting" i would say maybe a little. Not much though. And i have been pressing on mine in just the last few minutes and although there are knots there, no pain. And i've never experienced any swelling.

i agree with stpete scar tissue hurts going through but pushing oil or water based through its quite a pain not in physical pain but resistance in the substance going into the muscle; seems like it just doesnt wanna go in

I also forgot to mention that the skin above it is numb....any thoughts?
