Many babies may have some obvious vascular tumors on their bodies, but parents may not know about them because many parents are not familiar with vascular tumors and even think they are just birthmarks. Some vascular tumors will disappear on their own, so there is no need for excessive intervention or worry too much. So, what is the process of regression of baby vascular tumors?
What is the process of regression of baby hemangioma
The treatment of infantile hemangioma needs to be determined based on factors such as the age of the baby, the location and nature of the hemangioma. It usually enters the decline period at 8-12 months.
2. The regression period can last until the child is 5-10 years old, so for some stable infantile hemangiomas, we can mainly adopt follow-up observation.
3. The longer the natural regression time of vascular tumors, the more likely it is for local skin tissue abnormalities, skin laxity and bulging, and even fibrosis to occur after vascular tumor regression.
The hazards of hemangioma
1. It is easy to leave a shadow on the young minds of children, causing feelings of inferiority, anxiety, and other emotions, leading to social barriers, psychological disorders, and personality problems, seriously endangering their mental health.
2. Microcirculatory disorders caused by vascular tumors are very detrimental to the normal metabolism of pediatric patients, resulting in skeletal and intellectual development disorders, which in turn affect children's physical health and growth and development.
Hemangiomas have strong invasiveness, can easily cause tissue dysfunction, and are also prone to rupture.
After the birth of a newborn, parents should check the entire body of the child to see if there are any so-called "birthmarks" on the child's body. If it is red, it should be taken seriously because it is likely to be a vascular tumor. It is necessary to have a doctor distinguish it in a timely manner. If it is a vascular tumor, observation should be maintained. In most cases, it will disappear on its own, and very few children need surgery to remove it.
