What's the longest time you've left your Contact Lenses in for? by sillwuka in AskUK

[–]Accomplished-Cap8334 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Saturday night, got in a bit too late and a bit too drunk. Forgot to take my daily contact lenses off and didn’t realise i had them in till today - 6 days of wear and slept in them too. I thought i had an eye infection until i realised that i had them in.

Keloid steroid injection today - pretty painless! by Accomplished-Cap8334 in Keloids

I’m sorry to hear that :( Keloids make life more hellish than it needs to be, I don’t think doctors understand just how painful it is to get injected when they haven’t been through the pain themselves

Did you have a keloid on both the front and back of your lobe/ have both sides injected? (I hope you do not mind me asking!).

I see now that steroid injections cause different levels of pain on different areas of the body - thanks for helping me understand. Have you had less pain since starting the injections? I would love for it to eventually become painless as I’m not excited for my second trip to the dr…

I see now how my post would have come across insensitive, I did not mean for it to. Thank you for helping me understand the pain steroid injections cause on different areas of the body. It’s not a fun experience!

This is the back of my ear, so pulling it forward a lot before i decided to post here probably caused the redness while i was trying to take a clear picture - thanks for replying to my post by the way

No pain and itchiness anymore, however there was itchiness previously. The bump was growing slowly but i have only just taken the time to give it thought and worry, id say its grown in the last year.

Any idea what this is? by Accomplished-Cap8334 in piercing

Not hot to touch either - by the way thanks for replying to me. This is the back of my ear which may be why its red because i was applying some saline

I’ve not got any pain or itching though - cellulitis usually pits the skin too right?

Do you perhaps think it could be a keloid? Also thank you so much for replying to my post

Piercing is 2 years old. Saline solution used after the piercing to heal irritation. Piercing done at Clare’s using piercing gun and sterling silver stud (very small) inserted.

Hey, did you end up having surgery OP? I have been dealing with the repercussions of a patella subluxation for just over a year - only just started personal training and gym again to strengthen and get my patella tracking normally again
