Sumario:Salt is an inexpensive, widely available substance that has few treatment side effects, apart from a mild stinging sensation that resolves after topical application. Salt has proven to be an effective treatment for pyogenic granulomas in children and leads to rapid lesion resolution without recurrence. We report a case of a young girl in whom salt is used as a treatment for a partially excised pyogenic granuloma, with complete lesion resolution.
