Question 1

My mom has developed some extra skin growth on her finger I've attached a photo. I'm thinking surgery might be needed but I'm not sure which type of doctor to see in Bangalore. Can you suggest a specialist or hospital for this?

Accepted Answer

For a skin growth on a finger, a dermatologist is the best specialist to consult in Bangalore. They can accurately diagnose the growth, determine if it's a skin tag (a common, benign growth), or if further investigation (like a biopsy) is needed. If removal is necessary, a dermatologist can perform it in a safe and efficient manner.

Question 2

I'm worried because I've had this bump on my mons pubis for about six months now. It tends to swell and becomes painful, especially during my periods, but other times it's just there, like a little ball under the skin that I can feel when I touch it. I tried using a hot compress like my gynecologist suggested. While it helped with the swelling a bit, the bump still hasn't gone away. What could this be, and should I be doing something else to treat it?

Accepted Answer

Your complain should be addressed to a Dermatologist. You may have a Bartholin's cyst. You may need to take antibiotics. Additionally, you can use a sitz bath with warm water a few times a day to help with the discomfort. If the cyst persists, you may need a procedure called marsupialization to drain it.
