Hypertropic scar
I underwent High tibial osteotomy for my bow legs in the month of March this year. But the site where cut was made healed comletely a hypertropic scar has developed. I get pain when that part touches somewhere. Will it reduce or flatter on its own over the period of time ? I have to undergo another surgery for the implant removal after 2 years hence again an incision will be made on the same spot . Will it flatten over time . Please prescribe any home remedies if any . I have attached pictures below .
