Brief Summary:
The goal of this clinical trial is to learn if drug bleomycin intralesionally is beneficial than intralesional 5FU and Triamcinolone Acetonide in treating Keloids. The main questions it aims to answer are:
Does drug Bleomycin injected intrasleisonally lower the time duration to effectively treat the keloids in participants as compared to intralesional Triamcinolone Acetonide and 5-Flourouracil? Researchers will compare drug Bleomycin and 5FU plus Triamcinolone Acetonide and determine if bleomycin is better.
Participants will:
Treatment will be given in two groups by a researcher blinded of the treatment being given in each group. POSAS patient and observer scar scale will be used to assess the keloids at 0, 2, 4, 6, 8, 10, and 12 weeks and during follow ups afterwards, assessments will be carried out by another researcher who will assess the improvement on the scale of 0-no improvement, to excellent-75-100% improvement in terms of POSAS variables. Effectiveness will be indicated by 50% reduction in POSAS score from the baseline.

An informed, written consent will be taken from the patients. Clinical data including demographic data will be recorded. Patients will be randomly divided into two groups by using random allocation software 2.0. Group A will be given 1ml if 0.9ml/22.5mg (25mg/ml) of 5-FU with 0.1 ml/4mg (40mg/ml) of Triamcinolone Acetonide, intralesionally 1cm apart, as 0.1- 0.2ml/cm2 with max dose of 5ml per session and repeat after every 2 weeks. Group B will be given injection Bleomycin 1.5 IU /ml (15 units vial dilution in 10ml Normal saline) 1 ml of this 1cm apart intralesionally as 0.1- 0.2ml/cm2 with max dose of 5ml per session and repeat after 2 weeks. Treatment will be given in two groups by a researcher blinded of the treatment being given in each group. POSAS patient and observer scar scale will be used to assess the keloids at 0, 2, 4, 6, 8, 10, and 12 weeks and during follow ups afterwards, assessments will be carried out by another researcher who will assess the improvement on the scale of 0-no improvement, to excellent-75-100% improvement in terms of POSAS variables. Effectiveness will be indicated by 50% reduction in POSAS score from the baseline. All the data will be noted on a specially designed pro forma.
