Can pyogenic granuloma be treated without surgery?

. My nephew had a pyogenic granuloma on his finger which grew rather large and bled profusely. His doctor told him it would not go away without surgery. He lived with it for about two months [keeping it covered due to bleeding and to prevent infection.] Then all the sudden it began to shrink... within two weeks it disappeared. It has not grown back. .


Is pyogenic granuloma dangerous?

If you are otherwise healthy, a pyogenic granuloma in the mouth is not particularly dangerous. It is simply a localized area of acute inflammation in the gum tissue with highly vascular (lots of blood vessels) exuberant tissue growth as a defense mechanism. Once the source of the infection has been removed, the inflammation will be resolved. Sometimes a minor surgery needs to be performed to remove the benign tumor.
