Red birthmarks often appear after the baby is born or shortly after it is born. They are pale red or purplish red patches that do not protrude from the skin. The surface is smooth and the faded shape is irregular, which mostly occurs on the face, neck, scalp and other parts of the body, such as upper and lower limbs, chest or back of hand. With the increase of age, the color of red and blue will deepen and the area will increase. And gradually affect health, so the red birthmark needs early detection and early treatment.
The red birthmark mainly affects the appearance in the early stage and can develop into a tumor-like shape in the later stage. Very few patients are accompanied by epilepsy, thrombocytopenia and osteopenia. Different parts of the red birthmark have different hazards.
1.65% nevus flammeus growing on the face may be complicated with eye and nerve abnormalities, such as glaucoma.
Second, the nevus flammeus on the limbs will make millions of limbs hypertrophy, and even the skeletal muscle growth is abnormal and deformed.
Thirdly, the nevus flammeus growing in the midline of the back may be complicated with vascular abnormalities in the lower spine.
Fourth, carelessness can cause rags and ulcers.
Five, the more obvious parts of the face, such as wine stains, will also seriously affect the child's mental health, which will easily lead to the child's inferiority complex and withdrawn personality.
Expert tip: the treatment of red birthmark should be based on the patient's own situation and specific problems. It is best to choose a professional hospital, when to treat yourself and strengthen daily care.
Experts from Shanghai Dafu Hospital tell you that hemangioma originated from vascular embryonic tissue and belongs to congenital benign tumor. Most of them are caused by congenital factors, but some of them are caused by external factors, so it is generally necessary to go to the hospital for relevant examinations to make a diagnosis. But it is mainly due to tumors caused by vascular tissue; 80% of them are congenital. Hemangiomas are benign, grow slowly and generally do not become malignant.
Before we know the best treatment time for neonatal hemangioma, let's take a look at when hemangioma formed. There are several theories about the causes of neonatal hemangioma formation:
1, the occurrence of hemangioma is composed of a large number of proliferating blood vessels, usually in the early embryo, because the original blood vessels are simple tubes composed of endothelial cells, and a dense network is formed in the stroma. With the development of various organs, the primitive vascular network gradually differentiated into many vascular plexus and lymphatic plexus connected with organs.
2、
Development and changes of blood vessels: Most experts and scholars believe that hemangioma is formed in early embryos. Generally speaking, in the process of human embryo development, mainly in the early stage of vascular tissue differentiation, due to the small-scale dislocation of its control gene fragments, the tissue differentiation of its specific parts is abnormal, which leads to the occurrence of hemangioma.
3、
Mechanical injury: Some people think that the formation of hemangioma is due to the mechanical injury of embryonic tissue, causing local tissue bleeding, making some hematopoietic stem cells distribute to other embryonic characteristic cells, and some differentiate into vascular-like tissues, leading to the appearance of cutaneous hemangioma.
For different patients, the etiology and course of hemangioma are not uniform, so it is impossible to determine the best treatment time for hemangioma. In clinical treatment, it is found that the earlier the hemangioma is treated, the better. The smaller the hemangioma, the better the therapeutic effect. Hemangiomas are easy to be completely removed after treatment and usually do not recur after treatment. And when the area of hemangioma is small, non-surgical treatment can often achieve satisfactory results, while when the area of hemangioma is large, the operation is more difficult and conservative treatment takes a long time. After the hemangioma subsides, it often leaves traces on the skin, which affects the appearance.
