Congenital hemangioma may have bleeding, ulceration, necrosis, affecting aesthetics and other hazards, and some smaller congenital hemangiomas that can fade away quickly may not have any special hazards.
Congenital hemangioma is a benign vascular tumor that exists at birth and can occur in any part of the skin, such as the head, neck, limbs, etc. It manifests itself as a localized, isolated, elevated vascular mass, the size of which varies from person to person, with some being small, perhaps a few millimeters, and some being larger, perhaps several centimeters or more.
Congenital hemangiomas may bleed after friction or scratching, and may also lead to ulceration or necrosis, with the possibility of massive blood loss and secondary bacterial infection if not treated promptly. In addition, if the larger congenital hemangioma grows on the face, it will also have a certain impact on facial aesthetics.
Some small congenital hemangiomas that can resolve quickly often resolve in 12 to 14 months after birth, and there is no special harm if there are no complications such as hemorrhage, ulceration, or necrosis during this period.
Congenital hemangiomas mostly occur in infancy, some of them can go away by themselves, and some of them can’t go away by themselves, so it is recommended to carry out dynamic observation or reasonable diagnosis and treatment under the guidance of doctors.
