Question
A fresh red, slightly raised, clearly bordered, and irregularly shaped patch appeared on the leg. The color fades when pressed and returns after pressure is released. What are the treatment methods for hemangiomas?
Answer
Conservative treatment for hemangiomas is often ineffective, and surgery is usually required. For small hemangiomas, surgery is generally not necessary as they do not significantly affect health, and regular follow-up checks are sufficient. If the hemangioma is large in volume, it is recommended to seek professional treatment from a vascular surgery department in a large hospital. Surgical treatment is relatively safe with good postoperative recovery. It is important to rest adequately, drink plenty of water, and consume fruits and vegetables, avoiding spicy and irritating foods.
