If you have moles that change shape or color, it can be an indication of skin cancer. It’s important to have a thorough evaluation of your skin if you notice mole changes or any other persistent symptoms.
In many cases, Dr. Surendran can diagnose a skin condition based on the appearance of your skin and your other symptoms. They can review your medical history and your current health to rule out underlying issues that may be causing your symptoms.
Allergy tests may also be useful in identifying substances that cause skin-related symptoms, such as rashes or itchiness.
Your doctor can recommend over-the-counter or prescription medications for conditions like eczema and psoriasis, to reduce redness, swelling, and persistent itching.
If your skin condition is the result of an allergy, you may alleviate symptoms using a topical or oral antihistamine. Skin infections from a cut or other injury require a course of antibiotics.
If you have moles or lesions that affect how you feel about your appearance or those that change in color or size, Dr. Surendran offers in-office excisions. This simple surgical procedure removes the mole or lesion using a shaving technique.
Once they remove the mole or lesion, Dr. Surendran sends it to a medical laboratory for further analysis to rule out skin cancer.
