I have keloid development on my shoulder and lower back which are about a size of a badam seed and increasing slowly in size. How can I get rid of it or prevent it from growing larger?

Keloids tend to reduce on size on application of pressure. Please massage the keloids applying firm pressure such that you have mild discomfort daily twice. Coconut oil can be used to facilitate massage. Apart from this, you may need some injections into them by Dermatologist.
