How to treat infantile skin hemangioma

Infant skin hemangioma is a relatively common disease that occurs in most infants. In fact, there are many treatments for infant skin hemangioma at present, but mothers need to pay attention that before taking any treatment for infant skin hemangioma, it is best to first confirm whether it is really an infant skin hemangioma, because many infants will have red spots similar to infant skin hemangioma, but they are not infant skin hemangioma. Let’s learn how to treat infantile skin hemangioma.

You need to choose an authoritative hospital for diagnosis and treatment and follow the doctor's advice to achieve a good treatment goal. Skin hemangioma, also known as hematoma, is a benign tumor of the skin blood vessels. It usually occurs in infants or children, and usually signs will appear at birth or shortly after birth. It will basically grow with age and stop growing in adulthood. Clinically, it is divided into four types: port wine stain, simple hemangioma, cavernous hemangioma and mixed hemangioma.

1. When treating hemangioma, you must first consider the location, type and age of the patient, and then develop an accurate treatment plan. Current treatment methods are divided into surgical resection, radiotherapy, laser therapy, etc. Some may disappear on their own, but if they grow particularly quickly, they should be removed surgically.

2. Since infants are too young, their body functions cannot be fully developed. Therefore, for infants and young children's cavernous hemangiomas, oral prednisone can be taken to stop the growth of the tumor or slowly shrink it. Adult hemangiomas are insensitive to hormones, so the treatment effect can be achieved by injecting vascular sclerosant.

3. Hemangiomas that can be removed after examination in the hospital can be removed through surgery. If the tumor is too large, you can consider staged resection to avoid affecting your appearance. Although there are many methods for treating hemangiomas, the problem of large hemangiomas has not yet been solved.

Note: The patient's diet should be carefully cared for. He should take high-calorie, easily digestible food. At the same time, the patient's tableware disinfection and care should be strengthened. If you cannot swallow, you can use nasogastric feeding to achieve the effect of feeding.

The above is an introduction to how to treat infantile skin hemangioma. It should be noted here that there are currently many treatments for infant skin hemangiomas, and the treatment effects are very good, so parents only need to take their babies to the hospital for diagnosis as soon as possible and receive treatment in time, so that their babies can recover. Of course, daily care of your baby is very important and cannot be ignored.
