What could be done to resolve painful boils in the face?

This Premium Q&A, reviewed and published, features a real conversation between an iCliniq user and a physician.

Patient's Query

Hello doctor,

I noticed some boils while shaving. I have attached the pictures, what can they be? How long will it take for them to go? Sometimes, shaving is painful because of them.

Hi,

I am glad you chose icliniq for your medical-related queries.

I understand your concern and will try to help you with it.

By the pictures (attachment removed to protect patient identity), it looks like facial warts. Warts are painless solid mass, which gradually increase in number. It will also increase if you shave again and again. You have to go to a nearby dermatologist and get it removed by electrocautery or radiofrequency. Do not touch or shave it until you get it removed.

Thank you for consulting me.

Patient's Query

Hi doctor,

Thank you for the reply.

I noticed them for five months and never cared about them. Shaved them numerous times without knowing. I should not have neglected this. I have scheduled a visit with a local demonologist, can they be permanently cured? What can be the causes?

Hi,

Welcome back to icliniq.com.

I read and understand your concern.

Yes, it can be completely cured. A dermatologist can remove it by electrocautery or radiofrequency.

Looking forward to your response in order to help you.

Thank you.
