7 year old chest keloid
I've been having keloids since past 7 years. It's a huge disfigured lump on my chest. There are small ones around it and on my shoulder. It pains and itches badly. I want to know about treatments for removal.
Had taken cortisone injections which showed some results but had stopped in between. Now it has grown back after shrinking.
I'm looking for some permanent solution.
