Treatment
In people with normal immune systems, the disorder usually disappears spontaneously over a period of months to years. The lesions may be extensive in people with AIDS or other conditions that affect the immune system. Individual lesions may be removed surgically, by scraping, de-coring, freezing, or through needle electrosurgery. Surgical removal of individual lesions may result in scarring. Medications, such as those used to remove warts, may be helpful in removal of lesions.
