Bros no matter how simple it is ,I dont think in my conscious state I will put head down for a Nigerian doctor to do that ooo. I remember when a little boy had a small bump after colluding with a wall ,the doctors were already telling the parents they were gonna an operation on the little boy of less than 2 years old ,it was the father that said no and used just Panadol for the boy. Those Nigerian doctors will just be using ones head for experiment or specimen practice
You might have met the bad ones,it doesnt mean all are bad.If all are bad,then who has been treating the sick?Or they all fly abroad for treatment?

raycoolman:
Firstly, is your keloid covered or is there any form of liquid coming out? If it is not dried or covered but still bringing out little liquid then u can get dettol and rub. Rub liquid dettol using ur finger at list six times a day. Let the dettol touch an opening or the wound in the keloid so that u feel the hot sensation of the dettol. Use it and in three days time u will see ur keloid shrink to the best minimal.
And what is the mechanism of action of Dettol in producing this 3 day wonder? Why don't you suggest he rubs pepper on it so he can really feel the hot sensation?

[To get the original python fat is the issue. ..beside since one is not herbalist. .u won't know the real one but i have used it before as well before using the anti keloid cream maybe mine was fake but i heard it works fast


quote author=LazyFrog post=50335509]OP. I had a similar accident several years ago but my keloid was even more obvious because it was at the back of my right ear.

I got a doctor who operated on it somewhere around mazamaza in Lagos (can't remember the exact place though). After the operation I was advised to go and look for what Yoruba called 'Oori Ere' (Python's fat).

I got it from one of the local market women in a market around Agege and it worked like magic.

No more keloid and even the scars are gone, except for the top part of my earlobe that was chopped off in the accident.

You may give it a try hopefully it will work for you too. Those women that sell such things are everywhere in Nigeria, just find out the local name and ask them.

Good luck. [/quote]

You cant do anything to it...are you married?

First, you must seek an expert opinion and not rely on certain recommendation on this page.

+ Get a clean hair shave at all time (gori mapa)
+ Polish your head with anointing oil (olive oil)
+ Get married (that reduces the burden of being shy with the opposite sex)
+ You have to live with the scar for the rest of your life.

Bro, you're going too far to seek what you have right within you. I don't know your pocket and not sure how desperate you're about getting rid of this ugly Keloid scar. AB Bumps specialist is your best bet. I once had Keloid at the back of my neck sometimes in 2009 and I got treated at AB bumps ikeja. I don't know if anyone has something negative about them. But my Keloid was treated at AB bumps with no single scar left. None of my new friends knw I once had Keloid. Mine was even bigger than what am seeing in this picture. So I don't know if you're bouyant enough to go for the treatment cos their fee is expensive. Treated mine for 35k then. It's a treatment process that lasted almost a month and I got my desired results. That's my 2kobo.

You need to go to LUTH they will treat in three ways surgery, radiotherapy and drug. Very expensive drug though. By any means do not attempt to go to a one man hospital to cut it off else it comes back bigger and worse. Just get an appointment to see a surgeon at LUTH or UI they will handle it for you. Any other treatment local or advised will only end up wasting your money and frustrating you.

Don't ever try surgery alone.

Surgery + Radiotheraphy seems to be best option to reduce recurrence.

TO be honest, the Keloid's location doesn't seem that bad, and if your facial features are attractive enough, most ladies will overlook that.

Do you have any data on the success rates of your recommendation . How many surgeries are performed for every success story.
Do you have any data on relapse rates?
what is the risk of radiotherapy to the head?

Stop listening to people here with miracle cures. You should have continued with the injections. Takes time for it to 'reduce' even if it still leaves a sort of shiny 'scar' on the spot the keloid was. Disregard the advice given where you were asked to use clobestasol cream. As a topical steroid ointment, one of the side effects which will happen if you continually use it is thinning of the skin. The injection (which i'm guessing is kenalog 40) is still your best choice at this moment even if as a steroid, it has its own issues. It is not a one time thing. In developed countries, cryotherapy can be used. The injection is intralesional and is done by a professional so do not worry about people telling you to be careful of 'vital' head structures.

Pete, surgery has a high rate of recurrence and head radiotherapy in a young person especially male should be avoided at all costs unless it is absoutely neccessary

So keloids are incurable.. Pfft!


What about Surgery? undecided

surgery will still result to incisions on d area. When its healing d collagen distorts n keloids form again.
Thiz doesn't mean der r no advancements in medicine.
Der maybe topical creams or what not to try out abroad or some Chinese potions.
But avoiding scratches n injury on dat area is essential

I have to differ.For any treatment to be considered evidence_based or worthwhile there must be some kind of data. One must ask ,what happened to the last 100 people that had this treatment.Does it matter by whom and where the treatment was administered? and so on

There are so many different sizes of keloids located on different parts of the body. Cryotherapy is usually reserved for smaller keloids.
In general the most practical treatments like surgery and intralesion injections have close to a 50% chance of relapse often worse than pre-treatment. which is not far off from what happens with time anyway.

There are psychological problems associated with prolonged treatment and in my view that is what should be the original focus in managing steroids and their implication for body image psychology. This particular keloid in my view should be left alone unless it is causing troublesome itching.

linearity:
Your problem is not the scars on your head.

I can clearly see that, you have a bigger problem in your life and if not dealt with ruthlessly, it will bring you downfalls and failures.

That problem is, inferiority complex aka the value of self worth.

As for the scar on your head, contrary to what anyone will tell you, am 100% certain that, it will follow you for the rest of your life; unless you become filthy rich, to afford the surgery where healthy skins will be removed from other part of your body and planted on your head, plus some hair growth treatment on it...

but like I said previously, this does not scale in comparison to your real larger than life inferiority complex problem, deal with that and you will just be fine.

Mr, thanks for the advice. Buh I never said I have inferiority complex, so why the haste in judging me. Is it wrong to ask for tips from a public forum? Don't be to quick to pass judgment on people you have no single knowledge of who they are please. Thanks
