Eye Surgery Considerations

IEN community review

I used to get piercings quite often and in many places on both ears. Not long afterward, raised flesh appeared on my ears. At first, with a bold attitude, I thought, “Oh, it is probably just a wound healing,” and ignored it, but it was a keloid. Because I left it untreated, it gradually grew into something grotesque T_T. I received injections at a local dermatology clinic several times, but it grew again, so I eventually had surgery. My job requires meeting many people, so having this on my ear bothered me even more... haha. I thought removing such a large lump would hurt terribly, but they used anesthesia, so it was not extremely painful. It did sting a little after the anesthesia wore off. I was told to simply wash around the ear with water at home, so I did exactly that. I had seen many posts saying ear-keloid surgery would deform the shape and make it look strange, so I was honestly very scared, but it is healing neatly without any of that. Having that enormous lump gone is unbelievably relieving lol. Thinking about how much mental distress it caused me, I do not even want to think about it again...
