What Is The Best Treatment For Granuloma On Nose?

I have a granuloma on my nose where my piercing was rejected. What is the best treatment for this? My piercer recommended seeing my doctor for a prescription cream which will heal this and reduce the bump back to normal size. Will I need surgery on top of this?

Hello

It all depends on the size of the granuloma and how long it has been, for small ones a topical steroid based cream will suffice, but if it is big or infected, you may need surgical excision.
Please dont worry, meet your ent doctor, he will guide you further.
Thanks
