I have keloids on my body and I'm really worried about them. Is there any way to treat them without surgery? Are there creams or other options that can help reduce them? Also, are these treatments easily available in India?

Yes, there are several ways to treat keloids without surgery, and many of these options are available in India. These include topical treatments like silicone gels and creams, corticosteroid injections, laser therapy, and in some cases, cryotherapy. While these methods can help improve the appearance and reduce symptoms like itching, they may not completely eliminate the keloid.

I'm really concerned because I have this red rash on my side, right above my waist. It started off small but has grown bigger. When I looked into it, the symptoms kind of match hives, but it also looks like ringworm. The weird part is that it doesnt really itch. Could this be something serious or is it just a rash that will go away on its own? What should I do about it?

That could be P.versicolor infection,maintain personal hygiene,visit dermatologist for appropriate management.
