There are many types of investigations and every investigation is different depending on what is being investigated. People often have questions about how an investigation works and how long an investigation should take, below are questions like these that have been answered by the Experts.
The type of doctor that treats warts is a dermatologist. More Info: Though any physician can treat warts, a dermatologist specializes in skin disorders. A dermatologist is physician who specializes in skin treatment and care. After receiving a medical degree and an internship, a dermatologist will acquire three more years of specialty training in the field of skin, hair, and nails.
Other conditions that may resemble warts on the hands are seborrheic keratoses, molluscum contagiosum and skin cancer. Surgery is rarely used for warts. Dermatologists can cauterize or burn off a wart or use cryosurgery in their office. Hand surgeons generally do not remove warts unless a dermatologist has tried and it recurs frequently or if the dermatologist feel that the skin area that the wart is on needs a hand surgeons attention. Lastly sometimes a dermatologist or another physician wants a wart removed surgically from the hand because they want a more definitive tissue diagnosis and/or are looking to rule out a type of benign or malignant skin cancer.
