What Is The Cause And Medication For Hard Sore On My Face?
Hello, I have a had a area on my face, side of mouth, that began as a hard sore, it has worsened over time and has been over 2 months now. It is hard and sore, pulsates and when pierced alot of blood comes out. It does not seem to be healing. I did ask my doctor but she did not really say much about it. Can you give me any advice? Thank you. Are you preparing a response?

Hi,
It may be pyogenic granuloma most probably. Consult the dermatologist for the perfect diagnosis and proper treatment. He may go for removal of the lesion by electrocautery under local anesthesia.
Take care. Hope I have answered your question. Let me know if I can assist you further.
