Dr. Kaur,
I came across a post of your about garlic allergies. My son is 4 and has tested allergic to garlic, among other foods, including nuts, eggs, and seeds.  Garlic is by far the most difficult food to avoid.  He has never had garlic so I don't know what his reaction would be.  From your post, you appear to know about garlic allergies.  We have seen a number of different allergists, and they have not been able to shed light on what is specifically causing the allergy and whether we should do a food challenge.  Is there any way I can reach you in your office to discuss, or is there someone you can refer me to?  My e-mail is ***@****.  I would appreciate any insight you may have.

Hello,
It can be a wart or a benign skin growth. What exactly it is can be confirmed only after FNAB (fine needle aspiration biopsy). I suggest you to get it done from a dermatologist.

It is very difficult to precisely confirm a diagnosis without examination and investigations and the answer is based on the medical information provided. For exact diagnosis, you are requested to consult your doctor. I sincerely hope that helps. Take care and please do keep me posted on how you are doing.

Guess it is verruca vulgaris or molluscum contagiosum.
