Patient's Query

Hi doctor,

Thank you for the reply.

Is there any medicine or treatment? And is there any specific food which I should eat or avoid?

Thanks.

Hello,

Welcome back to icliniq.com.

I understand your concern.

There is no relation with food. Extraction and CO2 (carbon dioxide) lasers are the treatment of choice. In extraction, with the help of the needle, the material inside the gland would be extracted. And with CO2 laser they will be burned flat.

I hope this information will help you.

Thanks.
