My mother is suffering keloid in her right shoulder, caused due to injury by steel rod, since last 25 years. Underwent many treatments like laser, injection, silica gel, surgery, etc. Unfortunately it recurrences every time after few times. She is applying contractubex externally daily, hardly any improvement. She complains of itching and pain like pulling from inside. Kindly suggest any advanced treatment without recurrences available. Thanks.
