Patient's question:
Girl, over 3 years old. When she was 3 or 4 months old, a small red spot appeared on her right arm (where the vaccination was given). Everyone thought it was due to the vaccination. But later, several small red spots, like rice grains in size, also appeared. These spots have now merged into one, forming a red bump about the size of a small fingernail (not very raised). The shape is somewhat like a strawberry. I don’t know what it is. Is it a skin condition? How should it be treated? Does it require surgery? Is there any danger?Doctor's answer:
Hello, your child might have a hemangioma. It is recommended that you take your child to the pediatric surgery department of a hospital for examination to identify the cause and receive active treatment. Wishing your child a speedy recovery!
