Lesion

Types of Lesions:

1. Skin Lesions – Abnormal growths, sores, or spots on the skin (e.g., moles, rashes, or ulcers).

2. Internal Lesions – Abnormalities within organs or tissues (e.g., tumors, cysts, or damage to organs like the liver or brain).

3. Cerebral Lesions – Abnormalities in the brain, often seen in conditions like strokes or multiple sclerosis.

Causes of Lesions:

• Infections (e.g., bacterial, viral, or fungal infections)

• Trauma or injury (e.g., cuts, bruises, or burns)

• Inflammation (e.g., from autoimmune conditions or infections)

• Cancer (e.g., tumor formation)

• Chronic diseases (e.g., liver cirrhosis or chronic ulcers)

Symptoms of Lesions:

Symptoms depend on the location and cause of the lesion. They may include:

• Pain or tenderness

• Swelling or redness

• Abnormal growth or change in appearance

• Bleeding or discharge from the lesion

Diagnosis and Treatment:

• Diagnosis involves imaging (e.g., X-ray, MRI, or CT scan), biopsy, or laboratory tests.

• Treatment depends on the cause and type of lesion. It may include medications, surgery, radiation, or observation in some cases.
