I tried everything, reducing image size, clicking insert all, nothing is attached after I click submit. I'm terribly sorry for the confusion. Turns out my developer is implementing controls to upload video files into text boxes and somehow temporarily disabled attachments in general. Should have this fixed within 24 hours.

Your only concerns should be about the aesthetics and that fact it's palpable. It was never going to be a granuloma from your description. I don't think it will respond to DMSO etc, or if it does, it wont do so to a degree that satisfies you. I wouldn't bother looking into CO2 treatments either. I think your only real option is to have someone continually pierce it with a cannula to try and break up the main structure and then inject with Kenalog. I know it's disappointing to have a complication like this, but you can at least relax in terms of it being something more sinister like a FBG.

Ok yeh i will talk to dr Oates too and see what he suggests with getting treated with Kenalog. the dmso has caused it to seperate from an underlying Nodule that the tissues was attached to, (i think thats what it formed around) and maybe very very slightly reduced size so far, nothing significant.
