5 years on, my friend. I now know that keloids, like all scars, will be forever part of you. Some enlightened person told me its my karma. I have injured someone in my past lives. It is now my turn to suffer the same type of disfigurement. Treatment? Its on and off. Only when I feel pain or when the keloids are growing. Otherwise I just leave them alone. After stopping for a few months, I am back on the Hei Ba Gao again. I dont like it but I miss it. It troublesome but it somehow soothes the keloids. Makes them softer. I can swing my arms futher and not feel restrained when playing golf.
