Question : This message is for dr. XXXXXXX chacko.
I have attached some of the key reports. Please give me your inference.
The so called warts were examined by the dermatologist and said that these are punctate keritoderna, seborrhoeic keratosis and senile angiomas and none of them have specific treatment.
I am indeed relived. But, please do clarify as to why I keep getting pimples kind of stuff on my face on various spots and on the body too. they kind of develop into puss filled pimple and then go away but leave a small scar. Now I have them on my finger ( pointing) on left hand.
like you said I am not going to worry. Whatever happens will anyway Happen I am relived with the test results.

Brief Answer:
Normal reports

Detailed Answer:
Hello XXXX
I have gone through all your reports.
All the reports are absolutely normal.
All the tests for sexually transmitted diseases are negative.
I am not sure why you have done tests like C-reactive protein, Homocysteine, Fibrinogen and liver function test. But they are also in the normal range.

As far as your other query is concerned, the possibilities of pimple like pus filled spots on your body could be folliculitis or acneiform eruptions.
Please send me a clinical picture so that I can assess better.

Regards,
Dr. Johny Chacko
