You know those bumper stickers that say things like "there's no rainbow without rain" or "sometimes it gets darker before it gets lighter?" Well, I think they should make one that says "sometimes the tragus bump must get nastier before it gets better." In other words, the witch hazel was a success! I used it 2-3 times a day for 3 days and since then, the keloid went from what my dad refers to as a "big nasty zit about to explode" :P to a smaller, lighter, and all around more tolerable scar. What's been happening is a layer of skin will kinda die or something and peel off. And be even smaller. I'm almost afraid to say anything for fear that I will jinx it, but to anybody trying to rid themselves of a keloid, I highly recommend witch hazel. It smells a little funky, but it doesn't burn and it helps so much!
I will post a picture of the improvement whenever I get the chance.Until then...
