Hi I'm suffering from keloid for the past 7 years. They appear on my chest and shoulders. I consulted dermatologist and took medication (steroid injections) for two years. Keloid on chest area got reduced but on shoulder area it remains the same. Kindly let me know if there is any cure for it either in ayurveda or homeopathy? Else any other way to reduce itching or keloid size using any medicines or ointments?

If they r itchy, means the keloid is in active stage. Steroid injections works fastest in softening the keloids and limiting its growth. Other than that you can apply MOMATE cream at night HEXILAC - SILICON /VANIZA / OPEXA GEL twice or thrice a day and apply a small plastic sheet on top so tht the absorption of medicine is more from skin than on clothes.
