[|AI|]  Hi, It seems that you may be having post surgical hypertrophic scar. The scar may be elevated, linear and tough. Sometime, there may be itching. Actually, there is no need to treat, unless you feel embarrassing. You consult dermatologist. I usually give intradermal triamcinolone injection in scar tissue fortnightly till good result. I also advise exile silicone gel to apply on the scar. Take vitamin E, C and A for long time. After long time, you might feel better. I hope you got my answer. Thanks.
