Why is Snake covered in blood even after a shower?
So I have been playing MGS 5 for a while now and understand the mechanic of being covered in blood after a battle where you get hit or close combat kill an enemy. This can be removed by changing the uniform or taking a shower.....however I have just come across the point where I cannot remove the blood on Snake and it is rather annoying to me. Is there a way to remove this blood? Just for reference I am on misison 20, and have tried changing outfits and taking a shower.

There is a hidden stat in the game - Demon points, which are basically the opposite of heroism. Demon points are gained in various ways - Killing animals, enemy soldiers, prisoners etc.
These points accumulate behind the scenes and are not viewable. When your demon points get too high you will see changes such as being permenantly covered in blood and the horn on your head growing in size.
Demon points can be reduced by doing things like extracting animals, children and enemy soldiers via helicopter.

It turns out that, if you play "Metal Gear Solid V: The Phantom Pain" maliciously, eventually you'll end up permanently covered in blood with a massive horn sticking out of your head. Huh! The horn is a piece of shrapnel that the game's main character, known as both "Big Boss" and "Snake," cannot remove.How do you become a demon Snake?
