What Causes the Formation of Lumps on the Body?

Skin growths, commonly known as filiform warts, are primarily caused by viral and bacterial infections. They typically appear on the neck and can be removed through laser treatment or surgical excision. The presence of these skin growths generally affects one's appearance. If not removed in a timely manner, they may enlarge as one ages. Laser treatment is an option that utilizes the light and heat energy generated by a device to completely kill the subcutaneous viral bacteria and achieve removal. If the skin growths are relatively large, laser treatment may not be ideal, and surgical excision may be chosen. This involves removing the skin growth and stitching the wound with cosmetic sutures to achieve a tight and smooth skin appearance. Surgical removal generally prevents recurrence. After the surgery, it is important to maintain local hygiene and avoid exposing the wound to water. The diet should be mainly light foods. Iodophor solution can be used to clean the wound, which has antibacterial and anti-inflammatory effects and can promote rapid wound healing.
