I have been getting small spots on my cheeks the last couple of years. I am 48. These seem to have disappeared since using face wipes. But I have one that is now a lump of hard skin. It has been there for over a year now. I went to the doctors and he sprayed it with something that made it go larger, purple and sticking out. It was that bad I couldn't face going out. He said to go back in 2 weeks but it went back to the normal hard lump of dry skin so I didn't go because I couldn't let it go like it was when he sprayed it.
What do you suggest I use to get rid of it please ?

I would strongly suggest that you ask your GP to refer you to your local Dermatology department, especially if the lesion has persisted for over one year. The lesion needs careful assessment by a trained eye. A Dermatologist would be best placed to advise the most appropriate method to treat the lesion.

I hope that this helps
