What's going on when my child has little red spots on his hands?

Children play outside every day and the skin on their hands is easily injured. If possible, it is recommended that children wear gloves at all times to prevent accidents. Many parents do this, but they still find problems on their children's hands, such as many small red spots, which makes parents feel very worried. So, what does it mean when children have little red spots on their hands? The specific reasons may be as follows.

First, rule out recent infection; if you get a prick, for example, it takes a long time for many people to understand. If this happens, it will hurt when you press on the area, the surface will turn red, and you will see something in the middle. If it is deeper, you can go to the hospital for a checkup and have surgery to remove it.

Allergies; such as allergies caused by mosquito bites, which are very common and not uncommon. They can be treated according to the allergy treatment, so I will not go into details here.

Bleeding spots: Press the red spots on the back of your hand. If the redness does not disappear within one or two seconds after you let go, it is a bleeding spot. It is best to go to the hospital to check the platelets.

Vascular nevus, which is more complicated, is found on the back of many people's hands. They are often more common. When pressed, the red spots disappear and reappear after two or three seconds. In most cases, this type of nevus is harmless to the human body. Microwaves or lasers can remove it.

Hemangioma; some people call it hemangioma. The reason why it is listed separately is that some of them are small red bags protruding from the skin. This is a hemangioma, which is generally very small and occasional, so you don't need to pay attention to it.

Folliculitis; This type is actually similar to the first one, but if folliculitis is not properly cured, it will form a small red dot-like thing; in fact, it is local capillary hyperplasia; this is harmless to the human body and can be easily removed by microwave or laser.
