What Treatment Is Appropriate For Keloids And Skin That Is Burned By Whiting?

Tonight, I want to ask? On my shoulder there is a type of meat grown for several years. Actually the first time it appeared didn’t bother. But eventually it gets bigger, because there are those who recommend using betel lime and dabbing soap. I tried? It turned out to be sore and very hot. The surrounding skin is burning. How do you deal with it? Thank you

Good afternoon, thanks for the question
Keloid is an overgrowth of scar tissue that is triggered by a wound in the skin. Keloids will look like flesh growing on the skin after a wound.
Some causes of the appearance of keloids are:
1. Acne scars
2. Burns
3. Lukacacar water
4. Ear piercing
5. A scratch wound
6. Surgical incision wound
7. Vaccination shots
In some cases keloids can also appear without a clear cause. It is known that keloids can still appear after many years after suffering an injury. Keloids are generally harmless, but are a cosmetic complaint and sometimes interfere with movement because they can grow hard.
Some therapies that can be chosen for the treatment of keloids are:
1. Tretinoin cream to reduce the appearance and size of keloids
2. Cryotherapy is the mechanism of freezing tissue to kill skin cells
3. Steroid injection to reduce inflammation, can be combined with surgery or cryotherapy
4. Radiation therapy to reduce keloid tissue
Skin irritation can occur due to exposure to chemicals you use. It is better to stop using it immediately, then wash the wound with NaCl infusion solution or clean water to remove the remaining substance. If there are open sores, it should be covered with sterile gauze. Then do a consultation with a doctor to do a physical examination directly. Furthermore, treatment will be adjusted to your current condition from the results of the examination. For the treatment of keloids can be tentative if the complaint is now handled.
That's all, hope you can help
Wassalam.
