A hyperkeratotic skin lesion is characterized by an excessive buildup of keratin in the outer layer of the skin, leading to thickened, rough, and often scaly patches. These lesions can occur due to various factors, including chronic irritation, pressure, or underlying skin conditions such as eczema or psoriasis. Common examples include plantar warts, calluses, and seborrheic keratosis. Treatment typically focuses on addressing the underlying cause and may involve topical therapies or procedures to reduce the thickened skin.
