Lumps, cysts and skin lesions
A guide to surgery for lumps, cysts and skin lesions and our procedures
What are lumps, cysts and skin lesions?
Lumps, cysts and skin lesions are common and can develop on or beneath the skin in many different areas of the body. They include conditions such as lipomas and skin cysts, which are usually benign but can sometimes become uncomfortable, inflamed or increase in size.
Some lumps and lesions can simply be monitored, while others may be removed if they are causing symptoms, becoming repeatedly inflamed or infected, or causing concern because of their size, location or appearance.
Mr Tewari can assess the area and discuss whether removal is appropriate and what the procedure will involve.
