1. Apply a tablespoon of apple cider vinegar directly on the scar.
2. Gently massage the area so that the apple cider vinegar can be absorbed fully by the scar.

Hell
as correctly told to you by other doctors, keloids are incurable. If you try to remove it surgically, it will come back with twice the intensity. You can however reduce the itching by applying sofradex cream twice a day.
