Scar on Justin's neck
After the shooting episode of season 4 of 13 Reasons Why, when Jessica hit Justin with a stapler, he got injuries on his forehead. But after that, till the last episode, there was a visible scar on his neck like that of skin infected with fungi. It was not a scar of injury. Did they show how he got it or was it something that the actor had and they chose not to cover it for the character too?

Lesions on the skin and/or internal organs caused by abnormal growth of blood vessels. In people living with HIV, Kaposi's sarcoma is an AIDS-defining cancer.
Hence, they hinted that Justin had HIV and the scars were willingly put on the character's skin.
