Are There Any Home Treatments For Numerous Keratocanthomas Present Which Were Removed By Excisions & Freezing?
I am female turning 60 & have had numerous keratocanthomas present & consequently removed by excisions & a few by freezing. They've only been on my legs & one on my wrist thus far. Question is - am I able to do any 'home treatments' eg covering long-term with a suitable ointment which may eradicate the tumor? I've read quite a bit on treatments but not heard of any feedback on anything naturally. Thanks / Vicki
Keratoacanthomas is a skin condition for which the main primary treatment is surgical.
Depending on number of lesions and size of lesions , various other modalities can be tried like cryotherapy, intralesional injections of various drugs.
But still surgery is the main treatment and best treatment if possible.
There is no home treatment as such. I will advice you to consult the doctor and got it removed .
You should not take it lightly because sometimes one need to rule out any malignant change in the lesions.
Thanx
