When skin is injured, fibrous tissue or scar tissue forms over the wound to repair and protect the injury. In some cases, extra scar tissue grows, forming smooth, hard and raised growths called keloids, that can be much larger than the original wound.
Keloids can affect any part of the body, but they’re most commonly found on the chest, shoulders, earlobes, and cheeks. If you’re prone to developing keloids, you might get them in more than one place.
A keloid scar may form within months to years of the inciting injury.
Keloids aren’t contagious or cancerous and an early treatment can help minimize growth of a keloid.
Common Symptoms
- Smooth, pink and raised scar-like skin
- Painful & sensitive to touch
- An Itchy patch of skin
- Thick, irregular scarring
- Shiny, hairless, lumpy, raised skin
- Varied texture, from soft to firm and rubbery
- Reddish, brown or purplish, depending on your skin color
- Discomfort
Possible Causes & risk factors
The exact cause is still unknown.
- Keloids can run in families, If you’ve had one keloid, you’re at risk of developing others.
- But most likely it forms due to dysfunction of the wound-healing process.
- Other factors e.g. an incision for surgery.
- Chickenpox scars
- Ear piercing
- Scratches
- Found more in women, during pregnancy and adolescence.
- An injection or vaccination site, acne-scar, insect bite, body piercing, burns, hair removal or hair follicle infection.
- TB patients often suffer from keloids.
- Sometimes keloids form for no obvious reason.
- Found most common in people with brown or Black skin.
Prevention – DO’S & DONT’S
If you’re prone to developing keloids.
- Practice good wound care.
- Do not try to scratch, burn or cut the keloid by yourself. Keloid tends to recur even after it has been excised surgically.
