What Causes The Recurring Infection Of The Keloid On The Chest?
I had CABG 9 years before and there was formation of Keloid on my chest. First 5 years there was no problem and now the place where there is Keloid in chest is getting infected frequently and I am taking anti-biotic medicines to cure the same, every time. How can I get rid of the problem.

Hi you are either a Diabetic, or some infection is remaining in the keloid and re-surfacing.
After an antibiotic course, use magnesium sulphate dressing daily for a week. This will draw out residual infection--regards
