How can I cure painful vascular outgrowth on forehead?

This Premium Q&A, reviewed and published, features a real conversation between an iCliniq user and a physician.

Patient's Query

Hello doctor,

I have a red vascular outgrowth on the left side of forehead for many years. It is causing pain and burning sensation. Please advice best creams to erase it totally.

Hi,

I am glad you chose icliniq for your medical-related queries.

I understand your concern and will try to help you with it.

It is pyogenic granuloma, and it needs removal by radiofrequency or electrocautery procedure (attachment removed to protect patient identity). It cannot be eradicated by creams or lotions.

Thank you for consulting me.

You can always reach me at icliniq.com.

Patient's Query

Hi doctor,

Thank you for the reply.

But I request you to advice best creams for time being for immediate relief.

Hi,

Welcome back to icliniq.com.

I read and understand your concern.

For the relief of burning sensation use tablet Hicope (Hydroxyzine) 10 mg one daily night for three days. 1 % Cutisoft cream (Hydrocortisone) twice daily application for two weeks. But get it removed as soon as possible. The creams actually do not work much as it is not allergic or infective dermatitis.

Looking forward to your response in order to help you.

Thank you.
