Nevus, also known as nevus cell nevus, is a benign skin tumor of melanocyte origin, which usually does not require treatment, and if it grows in areas prone to friction, surgical excision is considered for treatment.
Nevus cell nevus belongs to benign tumor and usually does not develop malignant changes. However, if it grows in areas that are prone to friction or injury, such as palms and feet, waist circumference, armpits, groin and shoulders, it is prone to malignant changes and needs to be excised and treated in time, so as not to jeopardize the patient’s physical health. Common surgical methods include surgical excision and suture, surgical excision combined with autologous skin flap transfer to repair the defect.
It is suggested that if the nevus grows in a friction-prone or injury-prone area, the patient should go to a regular hospital in time and receive reasonable treatment under the guidance of a professional doctor. If nevus cell nevus grows in a safer place, it is necessary to pay attention to sun protection and reduce local skin friction, so as not to cause malignant changes.
