During the physical examination of a three month old baby, it was discovered that there was a hemangioma. As soon as one heard about the hemangioma, they knew it was a serious disease. When parents found out that their little baby had a vascular tumor, they were very nervous, worried that the tumor would take the baby's life, and tried every means possible to cure it. So, how to treat infantile hemangioma at three months old?
A 3-month-old baby has a vascular malformation, which is not suitable for surgical treatment due to the child's young age. At this time, most hospitals use isotope therapy, cryotherapy, medication, minimally invasive methods, etc. to treat infantile hemangiomas. After treatment, the effect should be considered. If the effect is significant, the hemangioma will shrink and disappear after a period of time. If the effect is not good enough, surgical resection may be necessary when the baby grows up.
Hemangioma belongs to vascular tumor lesions, which occur on the surface of the skin or subcutaneous elevations. Infants, young children, middle-aged and elderly people are high-risk groups for vascular tumors. Untreated vascular tumors can cause respiratory obstruction, affect vision, and even endanger life. The severity and progression rate of vascular tumors in each child are different, and the methods used for treating vascular tumors are also different.
During the treatment of vascular tumors, parents can continue to breastfeed their babies and try to give them breast milk as much as possible. Mothers should eat more nutritious foods in their daily diet, so that their milk can be nutritious and ultimately used for their babies. Usually, it is also necessary to feed the baby plenty of water, avoid touching the affected area of the baby's hemangioma during bathing, and do not touch or scratch the affected area with your hands.
