Many spots, skin growths, or moles are harmless and don't need treatment. But if you saw a doctor for your skin problem, be sure to carefully follow any instructions you were given.
If you don't have instructions from your doctor, the following steps may help.
If you are worried about how a skin change looks, try using cosmetics that are made to cover them. Or you may be able to cover the area another way, such as with clothing, a hat, a scarf, or a bandage.
Eat a variety of healthy foods like fruits, vegetables, whole grains, and lean protein. And drink plenty of fluids each day.
