Hi ,
Welcome to HealthcareMagic forum .
If I were your treating Doctor for this case , I would advice you
Tablet Paracetemol + Ibuprofen combination after food &
Ointment Metrogyl P or Neosporin H twice daily over swollen area & keloid .
Certainly above treatment will give you much relief but if relief is not upto satisfaction level then consultation with your ENT doctor will become essential.
Hope this helps , Thanks.
