Patient's Query

Hello doctor,

I have NF1, and I have had a small cluster of tumors come up. They are also itching badly. Is that normal?

Hi,

Welcome to icliniq.com.

I read your query and can understand your concern.

What you enquired for is normal for NF1 (neurofibromatosis type 1).

Best wishes for a speedy recovery.

Let me know if I can assist you further.

Take care.

Same symptoms don't mean you have the same problem. Consult a doctor now!
