Had Keloid Removed From Chest By Cutting And Asked To Refrain From Weight Lifting. Will It Occur Again?
Hi I recently had a keloid removed from my chest by cutting it out. I am a bodybuilder and the doctor said to refrain from weight lifting for 2 weeks because of stretching the scar out. Do I have a good chance of it not coming back as a keloid and also can I masterbate while have stiches in because I feel it's still putting pressure on it? Thanks

Hi,
Recurrence of keloid is common and let us hope there is no recurrence.
You can do masturbation, there is no problem.
Ok and take care.
