Question
I am 56 years old. I recently discovered some red spots on my hands and suspect they might be hemangiomas. I plan to go to the hospital for a check-up. Which department should I register for hemangiomas?
Answer
For general hemangiomas, it is usually advisable to visit the dermatology or surgery department of the hospital. Hemangiomas are a type of benign vascular disease that fades when pressed. Small and mild hemangiomas may not require treatment. Larger ones may consider surgical treatment, while wider ones can be treated with radiation therapy. It is recommended to have a check-up at the hospital first and then receive treatment according to the condition.
