What Does The Following Biopsy Report Indicate?
Brief Answer:
This is not serious
Detailed Answer:
Hi
Thanks for your query.
Post inflammatory melanosis is just excess skin pigment accumulation in area where previously there was inflammation. This inflammation could be from any cause, like infection, trauma, dermatitis, etc.
This is not a serious disease, doesn't lead to cancer. The outcome depends on the cause. Treatment also depends on the cause.
If the inflammation is gone then nothing much to do. Some topical preparations may be suggested by your dermatologist.
Hope this helps.
Regards
