Granuloma faciale
What is granuloma faciale?

Granuloma faciale is a rare, non-cancerous skin disorder that is characterised by single or multiple papules, plaques or nodules, most often occurring on the face. The term granuloma refers to a particular kind of inflammation found on microscopic examination of the lesion.
Who gets granuloma faciale?

Granuloma faciale most often affects healthy middle-aged white men, although it has been found in males and females of all races and ages.
What are the signs and symptoms of granuloma faciale?

Patients most often present to their doctor after noticing a spot or lesion on their face that then multiplies in number over several weeks or months. These lesions are usually:

* Varied in colour: skin coloured, reddish-brown, blue or purple
* Varied in size from a few millimetres to several centimetres
* Elevated and soft
* Prominent follicles (pores)
* Defined with a border
* On the face, although similar lesions have been found on other parts of the body such as the scalp, trunk and extremities

Granuloma faciale is usually symptomless. Some patients may complain of tender, itching or stinging lesions.

Ask your urologist, who performed the vasectomy. He is the expert.
