I need help with a keloid i have on my industrial piercing?

okay the keloid is on my top hole. its not outside of my ear, like behind it. its actually like inside my ear near the top hole. ive had a scab on it and took it off. but that didnt help make the keloid go away. i asked the piercer and he siad its a keloid and he siad i need to cut it off?!?! im like wait am in i dont think that sounds right.


and i really dont know what to do.


i clean it with anibactrial soap and bactine once a day


still doesnt help

Sea salt water soaks should help








FYI antibacterial soap and bactine are the worst things to clean it with. they kill the healing cells as well as the bad germs.





Also unless your piercing is 6 months old or older once a day cleaning is NEVER GOOD no matter what you use








Use H2Ocean or Dr. Piercing swabs


use 3-4 times a day
Reply:I agree with the other person... h2ocean soaks... also, I've found that tea tree oil works really well for Keloids.
Reply:yeah i have the same promblem on the top of my ear i got it pierced twice right on top of each other. so on those two piercings i got four keloids two in the front and two in the back. they are awful!!!! i have gotton three steroid shots in them from my dermatologist. he says they always work but it did not work on mine. they usually want cut them off because there is a chance it might grow back bigger. so i'm looking for further treatment myself. for now i have taken both the loops out and put in just one silver ball to try and cover them up in the front anyway. good luck!
