The last few years have been much more frequent.there have been cases of illness of newborns and very young children, an unpleasant-looking and fearful disease called hemangioma. Far from all parents know what it is, and the outward manifestations of it frighten many to severe depression. Let's try to comprehend what constitutes this ailment.
General information and cause
"Tumor" - a term that drives into a stuporMost people. However, recall that tumors are both benign and benign. Hemangiomas are precisely the latter. They appear as a result of vascular modifying. Moreover, violations of their development occur in the child before birth, inside the mother. Roughly speaking, the vessels begin to grow excessively, and a hemangioma is formed. What it is and what the vascular changes start from is still not really known. There are only unproven assumptions at the level of guesswork. On the verge of almost complete certainty, viral infections (and among them an acute respiratory infection) are transferred to the quality of the cause. They were transferred by the future mother during pregnancy until the sixth week. Even among the risk factors there are some medications, but which ones - statistics are not enough. Bad ecology among the causes of oncological diseases is always mentioned in the first rows - in the case of hemangiomas, it was also not forgotten. And finally, there are hormonal changes (both mother and her child). However, we recall that all these hypotheses have not been proven. As well as a clear idea: hemangioma - what it is: such a “punishment from above” for some sins of parents or a common illness like a cold, because of which you should not worry too much.
Do I need to delete?
The great consolation can be that the defectdevelopment of blood vessels in most cases passes by itself a maximum of ten years. An abrupt proliferation of the formation, which is a hemangioma, can be a warning sign. What it is - a temporary phenomenon or a signal to the need for surgery - only a doctor can determine. The closest thing to watch for ugly red spots is necessary when they are located in the upper half of the head. Such placement may threaten the fact that the tumor (even if it is benign) will begin to grow through the bones of the skull. Then the child faces hemangioma of the brain, and this is very, very serious.
In other cases, if the tumor growsslowly and does not penetrate deep into the tissue, it can be considered something of a small cosmetic defect - moles or warts. There is no need to remove. Although if the hemangioma is in a prominent place, psychologically, the child will have difficulty. And if we take into account that this unpleasant disease most often chooses the head area (second place is the inguinal part of the body, which is also unpleasant, but in adulthood), then in any case it will be necessary to decide in due course whether to remove it or fight a peculiar attitude society to people with pronounced defects.
Do not forget that hemangioma is harm,applied not only to the psyche, but also to general health. Damage to blood vessels, depending on which part of the body they belong to, can lead to deafness, asthma, blindness, and blood clots, which leads to very sad results.
