Is There Any Non Surgical Treatment To Remove Small Exostoses?
Hi Doctor, i m 34 old M, i had a surgery 17 years ago to remove some exostoses (as i have Multiple Hedetary exostoses- MHE) and now i have some small ones which i like to remove it, so i m wondering if there is any newly discovered treatment (not surgery) as a cream or any other type of medicines.

H,
No, there is no such technique to remove exostosis. Exostosis are bony outgrowths and can be removed by surgery only. There are specific indication of exostosis removal and cosmesis is not one of them.
Take care. Hope I have answered your question. Let me know if I can assist you further.
