Newborn baby bright red spots

The skin of newborns is weaker than that of adults and they are prone to skin diseases if not properly cared for. Port-wine stains are one of the most common skin diseases in newborns. Because children's resistance is relatively weak, when they suffer from bright red spots, many parents dare not give their children any medicine to treat the disease for fear of leaving sequelae. The editor recommends that parents should give their children timely treatment after discovering that their children have bright red spots, otherwise it will be difficult to cure later. Detailed introduction to the knowledge about newborn baby's red spots.

Port wine stain, also known as port-wine stain, or more precisely capillary malformation, is one of the most common vascular malformations. Its incidence is very high, accounting for about 0.3% of all newborns, mainly occurring in the head and neck (80%), with equal incidence in men and women. The cause of the disease is the lack of nerves that control the blood vessels in the lesion site, which causes the capillaries to dilate and become congested. The port-wine stain initially appears as red or pink patches, which may deepen with age, becoming bright red and purple, and may thicken and become nodular.

The cause of port-wine stains is the lack of nerves that control blood vessels in the lesion site, causing the capillaries to dilate and become congested. Initially, it appears as red or pink patches, which may deepen with age, becoming bright red and purple, and may thicken and become nodular. Generally, it does not affect the patient's physical health, but because of its prominent location on the head, it can easily cause great psychological pressure on the patient, and its impact should not be underestimated. In the past, port-wine stains could only be concealed with makeup. Isotope treatment was once used in medicine, but it often left difficult-to-treat scars, making future treatments difficult.

Port-wine stains are darker in color, appearing as deep red or dark red, and may partially or completely fade when pressed, whereas neonatal stains appear as light red, and are very light or invisible when the child is quiet, but darker when the child cries and makes a fuss. The boundary between the neonatal nevus and the surrounding normal skin is relatively clear, while there is no obvious boundary between the neonatal nevus and the surrounding normal tissue. Port-wine stains become darker with age and will not fade away on their own, whereas neonatal stains become lighter with age and will fade away on their own at the latest around the age of 5.
