What is Pyogenic Granuloma?

Pyogenic granulomas are usually solitary raised "juicy appearing" red skin bumps. They bleed easily due to the large number of blood vessels at the site. These growths are noncancerous (benign) and typically form as a result of an injury.

Typical Symptoms of Pyogenic Granuloma

Diagnostic Questions for Pyogenic Granuloma

Your doctor may ask these questions to check for this disease:

  • Do you have pus-filled blisters or bumps on your skin?
  • Have you noticed any lumps on your skin?
  • Do you have a soft lump under your skin?
  • Do you have areas of irritated or peeling skin?
  • Have you noticed any hard or stiff areas on your skin?

Treatment of Pyogenic Granuloma

For pyogenic granulomas in non-visible areas, for adults and children who can tolerate local anesthesia, surgical removal is generally suggested. However, if these growths are in visible areas, a less invasive removal like a small shaving or laser therapy is preferred.
