How to treat granulomas
Disease description:
Hello doctor, I have been experiencing granulomas growing on my nose. Could you please advise on how to treat granulomas?

The treatment of granulomas should be selected according to the cause and severity of the condition. Generally, treatment methods include local wet compresses, medication, physical therapy, and surgical excision.
1. **Local Wet Compresses:** Normal saline or boric acid solution may be used to improve local blood circulation and reduce swelling.
2. **Medication:** Topical treatments may include corticosteroid ointments, such as compound dexamethasone acetate cream. Oral medications require selection of antibiotics, hormonal drugs, or immunosuppressants (such as doxycycline hyclate capsules or prednisone acetate tablets) based on the type of infection, all to be taken under medical supervision.
3. **Physical Therapy:** Includes liquid nitrogen cryotherapy, cauterization, and carbon dioxide laser treatment, all performed by qualified physicians.
4. **Surgical Excision:** If the granuloma is large or other treatments are ineffective, surgical removal may be considered.
Patients should maintain a balanced diet, regular作息 (作息 should be translated as "sleep patterns" or "rest routines"), and avoid smoking, alcohol consumption, and allergenic foods to promote recovery.
