LazyFrog: I have a nasty scar like a baby snake on my shoulder that I got from an aluminium cut. My mom once saw it and said she would give me Oori to apply there and that it would go. I waved off her offer. I think I might try the thing now. The scar scares girls some times...I need to get rid of it. Thanks for this comment. 1 Like 1 Share |

Mztadhee:try using salt on it.wet the salt a little and put on the surface,if it falls off use rope or a tape to tie it. It will drain the water inside.then the spot will shrink. Try it. 1 Like |

To treat bumbs and small keloid mix gentimycin injection and hot movate together.hot movate is 200 naira and the injection is 20 naira apply day and night.if u have someone who can help u to clean and apply dettol and spirit to the spots it will be very good.u can finally apply chorolfenicol if it has open wounds to hasten it's dryness.this I have shared with over 10 people and it has really helped.pls wen the spots have cleared pls don't stop . continue and continue to use the method daily. I don't mean to spoil business for those who are bumps specialists but save your money.i am speaking from personal experience. Thanks 1 Like 1 Share |

You have to consult a plastic surgeon in teaching hospital/Federal medical centre. The keloid would have to be excised(cut) again. But this time you have to keeping applying silicon cream for life on it, that reduces recurrence rate from 85% to about 20%. If your stop rubbing silicon cream on it, then it maybe reappear. 1 Like |

Mztadhee: Dude, My point is, you are gud the way you are, you are expending too much energy on the minor. You have a scar in your head, so what? It is not a disease, it is not a sickness, it is not even an abnormality, except maybe your body was over jealousy when trying to heal you when you sustained that injury and did some overtime work. My previous comment was not intended to be negative, but rather to point to the fact, you are paying way too much attention to this. Accept my apologies, if it registered differently at your end. 1 Like |

@ demsid. They deal with all skin issues worse than what the OP posted. Its not about bumps alone. Accident scars and skin deformities. Was there 2009 so I know what I'm talking about |

ritababe: (Sigh). Well at least you know to ask him to see a doctor first Dear poster, please see a doctor first...to see whether it is a keloid or so something called a hypertrophic scar...you see, this kenalog is good for only one of the two. So please do not walk into a chemist shop and ask for a head shot of the drug. Please. Also do not have it cut without being sure what is it. And it is administered inside the lesion ![]() I am not mystifying it....see a doctor first...this is a free consult Cheers 1 Like |

merahki: I agree professional advice is always the way to go. I am a bit confused by your statement that "Kenalog is good for only one of the two" I believe this is wrong. Histopathologically there is not much difference and Steroids are an established modality in both though less effective for keloids |
Re: HELP!! How Can I Get Rid Of The Keloid Scar On My Head? by Tonycharles79(m): 8:42pm On Oct 19, 2016 |
Keloids are common, are difficult to treat and chances of recurrence is very high. It will require excision and a minimum of 3 dose of postoperative steroid injection. Treatment must be supervised by a plastic surgeon. |
Re: HELP!! How Can I Get Rid Of The Keloid Scar On My Head? by Nobody: 8:46pm On Oct 19, 2016 |
omonnakoda: You must be right....I learnt about keloids more than 10 years ago in medical school. I know there was something about the management that you ought to br careful about. I think the difference I meant with treatment has to be in trying to cut.....keloids would heap over and grow the more, while h/ scar will not spread.....OP still has to see a doctor...and not let that cut happen before knowing which it is Am I wrong again ![]() ![]() ![]() Thank you for the correction The poster above me said it all....and medical supervision is needed with giving and stopping steroids. I administered kenalog for keloids not long ago....intra-lesionally. I dunno who it was more traumatic for, myself or the beautiful girl wanting to feel regular without the lesions. Her crying for pain made me weak.....she needed me to sedate and supervise her course too. She didnt know I was traumatised all through. (I will read some pharmacology and histopathology tonight....catch up...treatment modalities may have changed also) |

[color=#990000][/color]The best treatment is the use of liquid Nitrogen which can only be done by a qualified dermatologist, this is virtually non-existence in Nigeria, the alternative is the use of intralesional steroid injection, also it's application and use can only be done by qualified dermatologist.I WILL ADVICE YOU VISIT A TEACHING HOSPITAL AND GET A QUALIFIED DERMATOLOGIST TO LOOK AT IT AND ADVICE YOU APPROPRIATELY.ANY ALTERNATIVE MEDICINE CAN CAUSE IT TO BE INFECTED AND CAUSE YOU ADDITIONAL PROBLEM. |

merahki:I don't think science is about right or wrong necessarily but evidence. This often means best AVAILABLE currently which changes and very often means palliation or a little better than useless.If you read textbooks from the early 90s you will find a completely discredited explanation for gastric ulcers. Medical books are not bibles though sadly many doctors treat them like just that having trained under a "TRUE or FALSE" regime There is little research evidence on keloids presumably because it affects black people more and there is no treatment with a satisfactory remission rate. Those that claim to have the highest rates are impracticable often and very costly. 2 Likes |

I've successfully treated several keloids on my body and yes you too can. Please forget cutting your hair for a while cos it will keep hurting the keloid thereby making it to grow bigger. Get a matured aloe Vera plant (at least three years old cos the older the more potent) cut the aloe in small potions n apply the gel liberally on the keloid,allow the gel to dry (repeat every three hours). Get hydrocortisone cream from any nearby pharmacy n apply it over the aloe Vera morning n at night.you will observe that the keloid will stop being itchy after about one week of treatment. Do this till you noticed that the keloid is soft n flat . thank me later 1 Like |

Mztadhee:I beg you in the name of God, please don't listen to all these advice (cream or injections) . I had Similar problem (bump), and I did all that, rubbed strange creams, herbal and clinical, doctors in hospital suggested injections which I took at the back of My head for a while, none worked. In short they worsened the situation. In my experience I can say Nigerian doctors know nothing about Bumps and keloids. I found the solution to my problem in AB BUMPS. They specialize in bumps and keloids. Their head clinic is in Lagos I think. But they have other branches across Nigeria. They even have one here in Accra, Ghana. I started my treatment in Nigeria and concluded it in Accra. You should try them out. Your best bet is AB bumps. Don't waste money unnecessarily like I did. Bumps and keloids are stubborn and should be attacked right. Experimenting different treatments is perilous 1 Like |
