Confused with diagonosis

JohnDoe1300

I recently had a visit to the dermatologist where a spotted a small growth near inner thigh and diagonised it with it being probably Milia. However the medicine he subscribed to me (Flonida 5% cream (Fluorouracil IP) ) seems to be listed as used with Genital warts. Can someone clear out the confusion. Is Milia treated with such creams?

How is it going? Did you make contact with your doctor to see if they could explain the medication choice a little better?

I can understand why you would be confused, from what I understand about milia is that it usually occurs on the face area and it usually goes away on it's own- on occasion a dermatologist may actually remove it.

I'd give your doctor a call for clarification of the diagnosis and ask how she feels the cream will be of assistance.
