Hello
Thanks for the query,
These tumors are called as neurofibromas.
These arise from the nerve sheath.
If these are few in number they can be removed with surgical intervention.
There is no clinical method to stop the appearance of these tumors.
Please get a ct scan done as even the cranial nerves might be involved.
Let me know if you have any other doubts.
Thank you
