How to treat baby's port wine stains

For babies, the appearance of port-wine stains at the corners of the eyes is very similar to hemangiomas, but the baby's eyes are a very sensitive organ, so the impact of port-wine stains is likely to cause some harm to them. So how should they be treated?

Hemangioma is a benign tumor that occurs on the blood vessels of the skin. It is more common in infants and young children and is a common and frequently occurring disease in dermatology. The eyelids are a common site for hemangiomas in infants. The eyes, as the windows to the soul, are very fragile. Therefore, if a child suffers from eyelid hemangioma, it must be taken seriously, otherwise there will be many dangers.

If the patient's hemangioma grows in the eye, it can easily cause eye discomfort. In severe cases, ulceration and bleeding may occur. Since eye hemangiomas grow in more dangerous places, their development is generally to be avoided. Since hemangiomas grow quickly and can reach a large area, they can sometimes cover the patient's eyes, making it impossible for the patient to live a normal life, and even causing blindness. For example:

1. Affect vision;

2. Affect the appearance;

3. Cause many complications;

4. Affect body functions;

5. It may even cause deformity.

There are many treatment options for the treatment of hemangioma, and with the development of time, there are more and more options. The following is a brief introduction to various treatment methods:

1. Wait and see:

For proliferative hemangiomas in non-critical locations, if they are small in size or in a stable growth phase and do not cause significant impact on appearance and function, regular follow-up observation can be performed; hemangiomas in the involution phase can also be regularly followed up and observed. This method is suitable for patients with milder disease.

2. Surgical treatment:

Surgery can treat hemangioma, but it cannot completely cure the hemangioma. Moreover, as a traditional treatment method, it has many disadvantages and is generally not recommended.

3. Drug treatment:

Drug therapy is suitable for multiple hemangiomas throughout the body, rapidly proliferating hemangiomas, and hemangiomas that involve important organs and are accompanied by serious complications or life-threatening conditions.

4. Tumor drug photoautophagy

For the method of tumor drug photoautophagy, babies as young as one month old can receive treatment. It is painless and has no toxic side effects. The younger the age, the faster the recovery after treatment.
