The goal of this clinical trial is to learn how well intralesional 5 fluorouracil with cryotherapy works to treat keloids as compared to intralesional 5 fluorouracil alone on keloids. It will also learn about the safety of both these treatments. The main questions it aims to answer are: * What well does cryotherapy followed by intralesional 5 fluorouracil (5FU) work to treat keloids as compared to 5 fluorouracil (5FU) alone? * What is participant's satisfaction when treated with cryotherapy followed by intralesional 5 fluorouracil (5FU) as compared to 5 fluorouracil (5FU) alone? * What skin problems do participants have when treated with cryotherapy followed by intralesional 5 fluorouracil (5FU) and 5 fluorouracil (5FU) alone? Researchers will compare cryotherapy followed by intralesional 5 fluorouracil (5FU) with 5 fluorouracil (5FU) alone to see how well both work. Participants will be divided into two groups: For Group A: Cryotherapy will be done at lesion site followed by intralesional 5FU every 3 weekly. For Group B: Intralesional 5FU will be given at lesion site every 3 weekly. Keloids will be assessed at the start of trial and then after 12 weeks of treatment.
