“…Chronic irritation, nasal trauma and surgical procedures, disordered oral hygiene, habit of biting lips, and intranasal tampon application are also factors to be accused in etiology (8)(9)(10)(11)(12). Although there are cases of PG developing after blunt laryngeal trauma and insect sting in the literature, no distinct etiological cause has been determined in several studies (13,14). In the present study, etiological cause could not be determined in nine patients (81%) except for one female patient with lesion on buccal mucosa and lateral side of tongue as a result of chronic irritation associated with tooth decay and one male patient with lesion developing on hard palate after hot meal.…”

“…Nasal packing, insect sting and previous nasal surgeries have been described in the literature as the possible traumatic factors, but the underlying pathogenesis in such cases is unknown 1 2 5 6. However, exaggerated inflammatory response due to prolonged irritating traumatic foci leads to hyperplastic tissue formation, which may be the possible pathogenetic mechanism in trauma 3.…”

It is most frequently seen in the third and fifth decades of life, especially most commonly in women.…”
