Hello ma'am. I'm 17 yrs old now and have have the keloid below the collar bone of pectoral girdle since I was 11. I have taken some medicines and also the injections according to doctor's advice and the half of the color of keloid matches with skin and shrinks whereas half of it remain swelled and reddish brown in color. Please ma'am suggest the home remedies or surgery so that I could get rid of it as I don't like that scar at all. Hoping for the reply as soon as possible! thank you:):)

Baking soda baking soda acts as an abrasive agent and helps ex foliate the skin. It can also be used successfully to manage keloids. 1. Mix one part baking soda with three parts hydrogen peroxide to make a smooth paste. 2. Apply the paste directly on the affected area to reduce inflammation and speed up the healing process. 3. Do this three or four times a day depending upon the severity of the scar home remedy any queries inform me.
