Benign tumor on skin

Cutaneous neoplasms - diseases are very common. Separate malignant and benign tumors of the skin and subcutaneous tissue. The latter, for the most part, do not change their character throughout their entire existence. However, in some cases, a benign tumor can increase. In a number of cases, neoplasms take on considerable dimensions.

A benign tumor on the skin or in the subcutaneous tissue can have some form or another. Among the most common forms are cysts, warts, hemangiomas, keratoses, lipomas, lymphangiomas, ganglia, fibromas, atheromas.

Lipoma is a benign tumor on the skin, which in many cases is hereditary. The prerequisites for the emergence of neoplasm are created during embryonic development. In the process of formation in the embryo of adipose tissue cell islands arise with a lack or a sharp slowing down of the metabolic processes. The growth of the lipomas (adipocytes) comes from these cells. Typically, a benign tumor of this kind is a single. In rare cases, multiple neoplasms develop.

In a number of cases, the lipoma can develop as a result of a trauma (injury) or as a result of constant mechanical irritation in any part of the body. As a rule, greens appear in the subcutaneous tissue of the neck, head, armpits, back. Usually lipomas are painless. However, in some cases, their proliferation leads to compression of the nerve endings and the appearance of pain.

Atheroma is also a benign neoplasm. It arises as a result of blockage in the duct of the sebaceous gland. Inside the neoplasm is a pulpy content, which includes fatty substances and epithelial cells. The dimensions of the lesion may be different. Atheroma can develop on any part of the body covered with hair. However, most often, it develops on the head, back or face.

When the tumor is infected, redness, pain, fever, swelling occur. Suppuration of atheroma is accompanied by its softening.

Fibromas are formed from fibrous connective tissues. When mixed with smooth muscle fibers, fibroids are formed. These tumors develop slowly, for many years. These tumors differ in a dense consistency, a spherical shape.

A benign tumor is called a hemangioma, which is represented in the form of a cluster of blood vessels that have grown abnormally. This neoplasm is characterized by intensive growth. When they grow, the surrounding tissues are destroyed. Neoplasms of this species are dangerous when localized on the oral mucosa, around the eyes, on the auricles. In these cases, there are violations of the most important functions in the body. The development of hemangiomas is unpredictable. Of a small-sized neoplasm in the shortest possible time, a large neoplasm may develop which requires immediate intervention.

Benign neoplasms can develop in different parts of the body, not only on the skin and subcutaneous tissue. Many of them are asymptomatic for a long period of time. Thus, a benign brain tumor is localized in a certain part of the brain, not spreading beyond its limits. Neoplasms of this kind are characterized by slow growth. Manifestations of symptoms depend on the site of localization. As a rule, signs of benign neoplasm in such cases are epileptic seizures, headaches, auditory and visual disturbances.
