Posted on Wed, 24 Jun 2015
Question: My dentist said yesterday i have what he thinks is a pyogenic granuloma on my gums. I have a biopsy scheduled for tomorrow. I am 45, female, not pregnant, non smoker. I am very worried this is an oral cancer even though it was not suggested. It has been there for a couple of weeks. Painless.
