Question
My baby is one year old. Recently, a hemangioma appeared on his foot. I am very worried and don’t know how to handle it. Is it too late for treatment?
Answer
A one-year-old baby developing a hemangioma on their foot is generally not a cause for concern. Hemangiomas may disappear or shrink as the child grows older. If the hemangioma grows larger with age and causes symptoms of compression, laser surgery can be considered. In addition, it is recommended that the baby maintain a balanced diet, get enough rest, and engage in moderate exercise.
