      <study_design>Randomization: Randomized, Blinding: Double blinded, Placebo: Used, Assignment: Parallel, Purpose: Basic scienece, Other design features: This is a full-matched clinical trial study with with-in patient (internal) comparison group and the study unit are Lesions instead of patients, Randomization description: Since the patient lesions will be the study units and eligible patients have two similar lesions, one lesions will receives one of the interventions and the other  comparison. By using a Randomizer software, on set of random numbers (i.e.1 to 10) will be generated. patient with odd number will receive intervention treatment on right lesion and comparison treatment on left lesion and patients with even number will receive intervention treatment on left lesion and comparison treatment on right lesion, Blinding description: In this study blinding would be performed for patients and also for persons which do sampling and experiment. Randomization would be done by one colleague. Drug and placebo ointments would be applied for patients as a left or right drug, after taken an informed consent. Patients and the sampler (specialist) are not aware which treatments are received because drug and placebo would have same features and sampling will be done in the same way. Finally, researchers will receive samples only with the codes.</study_design>
