Medical Conditions - Cryosurgery

Cryosurgery, also called cryotherapy, uses extreme cold to destroy abnormal tissues in the body, such as tumors. It is used to treat cancers and precancerous lesions of the skin, and it is primarily used to treat prostate cancer. This surgery most often uses liquid nitrogen, although argon and carbon dioxide may also be used.

All cryosurgery Q&A

My pap smear test showed internal bleeding and cervical erosion. Do I need cryosurgery?

Hello, Welcome to icliniq.com. I have seen your pap smear report (attachment removed to protect patient identity). The report shows that there are no signs of malignancy as such.

Could you suggest any cream or medicine to get rid of my skin tag grown under my beard?

Hi, Welcome to icliniq.com. I have seen the pictures you sent. The growth looks like a wart (attachments removed to protect the patient’s identity).
