Symptoms of capillary hemangioma in infants and young children

Capillary hemangioma is a specific disease symptom of hemangioma. Many people may think that infants and young children will not suffer from diseases such as capillary hemangioma. In fact, hemangioma does not depend on the patient's age and gender. Hemangiomas are easy to see in infants and young children. For patients who are one or two months old, their appearance may be affected, causing some tension in expectant mothers. The disease needs to be actively controlled.

Infant hemangiomas appear at birth or within 1 to 2 months after birth, and they cause concern to parents because they affect the baby's appearance. Patience from parents and close cooperation with doctors can cure the disease with active treatment. However, special attention should be paid to dangerous infantile hemangiomas, such as those in the eyes, throat, or extremities.

Childhood capillary hemangiomas are benign tumors that originate from blood vessels in the skin and often occur in infants or children. It is more common on the skin of the head and neck, but can also occur in the mucous membranes, liver, brain, and muscles. It is often discovered at birth or shortly after birth, with the most common port-wine stain on the occipital region.

Symptoms

The eyelids are the site of high incidence of hemangiomas, and the speed and extent of damage to the eyelids can be determined by the color at the initial onset.

1. If the redness is lighter and disappears immediately when you touch it with your fingers, it usually occurs before puberty and will not damage the thickening and deformation of the eyelids.

2. When hemangioma is first formed, it is bright red in color. Pressing the affected area with your fingers will make all the redness disappear, but it is heavier than the former. This hemangioma mostly destroys the eyelid with thickening and deformation during adolescence.

3. The color is dark red at birth. Pressing the affected area with fingers cannot completely eliminate the redness. The red pieces have a three-dimensional effect. This degree of hemangioma will cause varying degrees of damage, thickening and deformation of the eyelids during childhood.

For infants and young children, the symptoms of capillary hemangioma are very obvious, so once we see the symptoms, we should take appropriate treatment measures in time. Children's skin is relatively tender, so it is easier to see some of the above symptoms and manifestations. If the above symptoms appear, we need to go to the hospital for examination in time.
