Question

A newborn developed a rash on the hand 40 days after birth, diagnosed as a capillary hemangioma. I would like to inquire about the age of the baby for whom capillary hemangiomas require treatment, and what impact this condition may have on the newborn.

Answer

Generally, as newborns grow and develop, some hemangiomas may disappear naturally, so observation is recommended first. If the hemangioma grows rapidly in the short term, laser treatment can be considered.
