Benign Growths
“Benign growths are skin lesions made up of clusters of noncancerous skin cells, and they are usually nothing to be worried about. There are quite a few types of common benign growths that can pop up on the skin, and they may appear for a number of reasons.”
Warts
“Human papillomavirus (HPV), the virus that causes warts, can be found everywhere, and it spreads easily from person to person. It can be difficult to prevent warts completely, but there are precautions that can reduce your risk of getting warts.”
Seborrheic Keratoses
“While seborrheic keratoses aren’t dangerous, it can be challenging to distinguish between a harmless growth and a dangerous one. If you’re worried about a growth on your skin, make an appointment to see your dermatologist or doctor. It’s always better to be safe than to miss something potentially dangerous.”
