Moles or Nevi are the local raised or flat collection of skin pigment (melanin) under the skin. It may be hairy or non-hairy. Some people are born with moles, other moles appear over time. Most of the population has moles, warts, pigmented spots and other lesions on their head, face and neck. Most of these growths are benign; however, some lesions may be pre malignant or malignant. Moles that change shape, texture, color or size should be examined and possibly removed for biopsy.
Moles or Nevi are frequently removed for a variety of reasons, like their odd-looking appearance or risk of developing skin cancer (giant nevi has a tendency to develop skin cancer).
Warts
Common warts are local dome shaped irregular ferny type of growths in the skin that are caused by human papilloma virus (HPV) infection. It is more common in those people who are going to barber's shop for shaving due to cross infection of HPV Virus from other people.
Common Warts Treatment
- The best, easiest & most effective treatment of wart is fine-feathered low voltage electro-fulguration using low voltage high frequency diathermy. The fine controlled local heat prevents recurrence of warts in future. The use of electro fulguration in an experienced hand is the best treatment available for the warts and may lead to almost none or negligible scarring, with no chance of recurrence.
- Application of Salicylic-acid preparations (available as drops, gels, pads, and plasters) to warts may also lead to dissolution of protein keratin (which makes up most of both the wart and the thick layer of dead skin that often tops it) and cure from the warts.
