Welcome back , Elaina. I would translate to pick as tocar in the two examples you have given.

Welcome back Elaina!
In addition to tocar, as Iris says, here are some other possible options. Sé que se usa picar en Mexico. Stop picking on your scab!

Another source says hurgar las narices.
RAE: Hurgar = Revolver o menear cosas en el interior de algo. To pick through, dig through, fish through, rummage, move things around Reflexive form: To poke one's nose in, poke, rake To pour salt on a wound = hurgar en una/su/tu herida |
