>And if the steroid settles it down, you will be just fine.

And if the steroid does settle the problem it will be just temporarly because there is no cure for the disease :-(

>Presumptuous. You have some swelling, but this is loose skin, and swelling may persist for quite a while. In particular, the fact that you describe it as a "collar", all around the scar line, makes it most unlikely that this is in fact, active BXO (or rather, LSA), but rather, post-operative swelling persisting in loose skin.

Yes it could be loose skin but when I touch certain area of it...it does hurt a bit.

It is nice to have a person like yourself who is so helpful.

I might still have lots of questions to ask you
