hi ,Keloids often require no treatment. they may be reduced in size by freezing (cryotherapy), corticosteroid injections, laser treatments, or surgical removal. It is not unusual for keloids to reappear (sometimes larger than before) after they have been removed.to control the pain i would try a movalat cream or emela cream unless you have already ? good luck x
