Hello

Thanks for posting your query at DoctorSpring.

I can understand your concern.

These are called seborrheic keratosis. These are benign lesions and appear on the skin as we age. Only very Sudden appearance of a number of lesions over the body in a very short period of time is associated with malignancy of the lungs or intestine.

The only treatment for this is getting them removed by your doctor, by a radiofrequency machine which will burn them off.

This resolves the existing seborrheic keratosis but doesn't stop new ones from coming.

Hello

Thanks for posting the pictures.

There are early seborrheic keratosis. They are known as Dermatosis papulosa nigra

The treatment for these would be to get them burnt off with radio frequency machine.


A sudden appearance of multiple seborrheic keratosis all over the body esp. On the back is known as lesar trelat sign. A gradual appearance of a few lesions over a few years doesn't fit into the criteria.


Please let me know if you have any queries.

Take care

Hello

Thanks for your reply.

I am sorry but I am not aware about any doctors in Chennai as I am based in Mumbai. The treatment costs also vary from doctor to doctor and may range from 200 to 300 Rs. Per lesion.

Thanks
