42 years male from india have a keloid on chest for last 25+ years. Last november I got some pus in keloid and its healed on its own. Again in december got infection in mid of the keloid that with pus and sore. I visited dermatologist and he prescribed me ceroxim 500 tab bd for 10 days and mb rock (mupicropin) ointment for 15 days. The infection, pain was cleared. Again 6 days ago the keloid certainly became red, itchy and got an infection with pus and sore. This time I noticed a hair coming out of the sore. Every morning pus coming out from the sore or nearby area within the keloid. Please help me to get rid of this.

If there are sinuses in the keloid, it results in repeated infections and pus formation. Better would be to control it with steroid injection and if needed excise it even though there is a risk of recurrence. Consult a plastic surgeon.
