Question
A newborn baby who is only 34 days old has been diagnosed with a hemangioma. The parents are concerned about whether the condition will spread and whether it is suitable for treatment.
Answer
Neonatal hemangiomas typically have a tendency to spread, so it is recommended to seek treatment as soon as possible. Laser therapy is a relatively effective treatment method. The hemangiomas in newborns and infants may change, with some gradually shrinking and fading, while others may grow larger or increase in number. Therefore, specific treatment plans should be consulted with dermatology experts, and the baby should undergo an ultrasound examination. It is advisable for parents to take their child to a regular three-level A hospital for detailed examination and treatment.
