Question
My classmate recently looks pale and lacks vitality, and has no appetite. Accompanying him to see a doctor, we found out it’s a hemangioma. I want to ask the doctor, how should my classmate be treated for the hemangioma? Is this condition serious?
Answer
Hemangiomas are usually benign conditions and may not present with clinical symptoms, so there’s no need to worry too much. Generally speaking, we don’t need to treat it. We just need to observe it. If it’s a superficial hemangioma, we can opt for surgical removal. If it’s an intracranial or visceral hemangioma, we would also need more extensive surgery. Therefore, I recommend that the patient seek surgical treatment as soon as possible for the best outcome.
