There is a pigeon in my balcony who is just standing there and it has weird outgrowth or blister or maybe some insect bite all over his beak and near his eyes. It looks ill. What should I do? Should I go near it or not? And how can I help it?

I will suggest you to inform local government helpline (or police or firebrigade officials) and they will take the pigeon to a government vet doctor where it can be treated till recovery.

I think being a bird and appears to be sick and blisters around the body of the bird so there i'd a possibility of having some sort of viral infection which! may be infectious. So it is better not to touch it you should inform the bonadafter for the evacuation and needed treatment for animals and bird theyb will come and collect the pegeon. For further necessary action.
