The 1st thing people see is my scar. This episode just helped me to accept my scars and work on thoughts. Kudos to the ladies for taking the time to share your pain, journey. Relebogile and the Team thank you so much

[@heathermbambeni529]

Oh man,the lady in blue t-shirt made me cry 😢 she is so beautiful 😍

[@nelisiweshongwe2443]

Thank you hope I'll get help soon and maybe God will work His miracle on me

[@nomafrikatjatji6727]

The psychological impact on women, due to scarring is enormous. To be able to speak on it, shows great resilience.

[@alicenxumalo]

I felt numb when the lady from Mpumalanga said, sometimes people stare at her. I had no idea what they are. I always stare at people and wonder. Until this episode taught me they are called Keloids. It's a pity how someone's life can change at anytime. God give you strength ladies 🙌🏾🙌🏾🙌🏾

[@sibahlengalo]

🥺

[@elleyonaspg9580]

My sibiling had keloids, which was removed surgically but returned. After the second surgery, she was immediately given laser therapy and it never returned. Ladies, I pray that you are guided to a clinic that can offer you these services and that the universe be benevolent to you so you both can cover the cost of your care. Blessings in abundance.

[@keketsonthunya4794]

These things are really irritating. I've been cutting them for years but they keep growing. Went for laser therapy (radiation) but still they grew back. I'm tired hey.

[@ntombenanimlinda3265]

@ Keketso Nthunya, 2nd time of removal and being radiated mine also came back within a year. I'm on a journey of self acceptance

[@mamoketebokhale9794]

Relebogile I commend you on the kind of shows you bring. This is a amazing.

[@philakahlencwane8764]

This conversation is teaching me that you know what, health is something we take for granted nje. We think good health is owed to us, it's not. 💔 This conversation has been so eye opening and has taught me gratitude for health. Ladies. I'm so sorry. Thank you for sharing and helping me eliminate my ignorance. 🤗 I'm so sorry. ❤️❤️

[@lungilemtshawe9046]

When I watched the episode of the lady who had her child burn at crech she mentioned that the child has developed keloids on the legs due to the burns. My heart sank just thinking of the pain and the itching. Strength to you ladies. We will be alright. Thank you ausi Lebo for the show❤

[@nelisiweshongwe2443]

Thanks to Relebogile looking at this I'm seeing a different person the woman talking is different person than who I am she looks strong and brave thank you so much to the unpacked team you guys are amazing thank you so much

[@dorothydongo5493]

You are an amazing woman Nelisiwe. Thank you for sharing your pain with us. I am afraid to call you brave because you may not feel that way but your journey touched me. It made me appreciate the gift of life and health. It just opened my life that our bodies are so temporary. Above all you have just taught me to carry my life struggles with grace and hope. Much strength to you. I pray that medicine may find an answer to Keloids.

[@mapsy16]

So a friend of mine has done some research on keloids, and we have had many conversations about this condition, and we would joke around about how difficult it is to get patients to agree to provide samples and such. Now hearing the stories from the mouths of said patients, I realise that our convos lacked much context and the necessary empathy. This interview has reminded me once again how desensitized people in academic research can be, and I think the same applies to medical professionals. I have experienced the same frustration with doctors because my son has chronic eczema. Medical professionals (doctors, nurses, etc.) tend to treat patients like they are just a file number or just another sample on a Petri dish, forgetting that these are real people, dealing with very real pain. They do not do enough, and often, they pile on the anxiety and distress.

[@favournganga4258]

It's true

[@nomafrikatjatji6727]

Add empathy to your resource and continue with your research, if anything be encouraged that it will be helping Black people who don't even have the benefit of research that is inclusive of them. Take a break, but please continue

Its great you put this out on Keloid awareness month . There is so many us living with this and it takes great courage to accept that this is a part of ones life . Its important for people to actually learn about it just to avoid stares from people in public and uncomfortable questions .

[@nelisiweshongwe2443]

[@mantwamadiba4715]

You ladies are so brave. I pray for Jehovah to comfort you during this horrible time. I'm so sorry that you are in so much pain both physically and emotionally. So sorry 😞 😔 😟

[@TheKefmoth]

I had keloids on my cesarean scar. After my second child, the next obstetrician cut them out, and attempted a type of stitch that decreased scaring. They still came back but MUCH smaller. He has informed me that IF they come back, he could inject steroids into the scars, which would lead to bleaching if the skin, but smaller keloids. It's heartbreaking heating this lady say she's scratching them this much, Its key not to scratch. That causes them to grow. It need not cost THOUSANDS to repair these. A dermatologist can help.

[@ratiwabammekwa4219]

People are going through a lot, i have to be grateful.

[@ashleyzviitei]

I am a keloider and I have surgery next week. I am dreading the surgery because of the possible scarring and keloids. I have raised my concerns with the medical people and they have nothing positive or encouraging to tell me. I either get them or I don't. Not reassuring at all. I empathise with the ladies.

[@damariszuckschwert9489]

They are very hard to treat even in countries like America and Europe. Its better to be left without surgery. I got mine on my chest but I thank God somehow they stopped growing.

[@ashleyzviitei]

@@damariszuckschwert9489 oh, the surgery is not for the keloids on my ears. It's a hysterectomy but my dread is what will happen with that abdominal incision scar when it heals. I had a hernia repair surgery when I was 5 and that healed without keloids...then I did double piercings on my ears in my late teens and I ended up with keloids. They are not massive but they itch and grow, more on my left side. I had them but once and injected with steroids but that made them angrier so I have left them alone for now and they seem to have settled down a bit. It is a gamble.

[@damariszuckschwert9489]

@Ashley Sarimana just live them alone and avoid to scratch them when they are itchy..,may be they may stop growing. Mine I really avoided to scratch them by God's grace they stop growing. Hoping yours will stop too by God grace.

In 2019 I had a baby via C section and my scar healed properly then in October of 2020 I had an operation to remove gall stones and one of the incisions (scar) started itching excessively last year and now it's a small lump of skin. It looks like it could be this thing and my husband and I were wondering why it kept growing. Thank you so much for the show Relebogile, I'm going to get it checked out before it gets big. I use to look at people with this condition and wonder now I realise it can happen to anyone. Lord help us to be kind at all times 🙏🏽

In the mean time, go to a pharmacy and ask for a micropore tape to place and cover the keloid. Just make sure you clean it with tea tree oil before applying the tape. I also have a keloid BTW

[@Khethelo_]

@@ndinganes4504 Can I get it at like Dischem? And what does it do? Shrink it or prevent it from growing?

[@mpotseng_bentley]

I forgot to mention that after radiation there is a type of plaster to use on the scar to press them down so they dont grow back and also use a scar cream. I couldn't get intimate with keloids on the c section scar because my partner at the time, a strong man used to be so scared of the keloids and cringed or scream if he accidentally touched them coz he said it felt like he is touching an opened wound (in his mind) and that used to annoy me. Ladies I know your pain.

Some years ago a friend was trimming my braids and accidentally cut a very small part of my right ear, months later I felt a small bump which I thought was a mosquito bite until it just grew and grew. I had it removed and it grew back and more painful, removed it again this time by a specialist and it came back sooner and more painful and grew worse. I didn't even take pictures coz it was all I saw. It affected my confidence so much coz people would just stare and kids would ask. I've had it cut again and did steroids treatment and now I'm hoping it never comes back

[@tshidimokone6595]

Keloids are common in black female as they say. Unfortunately it is difficult to treat because the more you operate in them the worse they become. Doctors sometimes don't have the patience of explaining to patients especially if they don't know how to treat them. It's important for the ladies if they have kids to educate them about the condition so that in future if the kids need surgery , the must inform doctors that there is a history of keloids in the family. I empathize with the ladies. 💔

[@kellymavhungs9115]

It's true hey. My son was bitten by a dog on the chin. Now he has keloid. & I'm so worried & scared cos kids sometimes bully him. We are even scared to take him for circumsation for in case it develops. I saw pictures of keloid on male private part & that was scary

please wait with circumcision because if his body gets keloids that could destroy his life. Consult first because they get itchy as well and might grow with time

[@mpotseng_bentley]

Urgent : Hi Relebohile please share with the lafies. I had keloids as well after c section operation and they grew so big .They were so itchy and because of the region of the c section scar it looked wrong when I scratched them around people. I had to go for an operation to have them removed. After the operation I had to go for radiation sessions on the scars for 2 weeks to avoid them growing back. I wish there were contact details left for your guests. My keloids never grew back after the radiation and that was in 2010 im free now. Please tell them.
