What Is The Remedy For Scar Which Turns Itchy And Swells?

Hello, I had an ingrown hair on my leg about a year ago. I took some antibiotics which I got from my family doctor and it is now healed, but there is a small scar. Periodically, this scar can become itchy and swell. It s like a rash. What should I do?

Dermatologist 's  Response
Hello,

Ingrown hair if removed then chance is again it's coming. Maybe some other pathology is there. So we need to look into the lesion to comment. Please visit a dermatologist for proper diagnosis.

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
