Hi,I am Dr. Shanthi.E (General & Family Physician). I will be looking into your question and guiding you through the process. Please write your question below.
I have polyps on my arms and legs, basically fatty tissue build up. I want to remove them. I had 6 removed about 20 years ago, in an office with a needle to numb the area, it was quick and painless . What kind of doctor do I look for since it has been so long?
Hello and Welcome to ‘Ask A Doctor’ service.
I have reviewed your query and here is my advice.
The bigger ones are tied & they shrivel and fall by themselves, the others can be frozen off with liquid nitrogen spray. Take probiotics, berries, fruits and veggies. Multivitamin supplements containing folic acid, Vit B12 and minerals like Zinc and Iron. Some times it is mineral and Vitamin deficiency that causes it.
Hope I have answered your query.
Let me know if I can assist you further.
