A member asked:
I was born with neurofibromatosis, and the tumors, lumps, on my body are increasing in size and becoming infected. some on my breast and are painful during showers. can you please advise on the best treatment options? thank you?

I would schedule a visit with a dermatologist to have the troublesome tumors assessed and removed if appropriate. This is not something you can fix yourself. In the interim keep all irritated sites clean to avoid infection.
