Patient's question:
Doctor, my wife is 41 years old this year. She has a hemangioma, but she doesn't want to be treated. It might be because she's afraid of the pain from surgery, or maybe because our financial condition isn't very good. Sigh, I'm a bit worried about her. I'd like to ask, what happens if a hemangioma isn't treated?Doctor's answer:
A hemangioma needs to have its location determined. If it is a superficial hemangioma, treatment can be performed without the need for regular follow-up. If it is an aneurysm, surgical treatment is recommended in the early stage. Generally, the rupture of an aneurysm leads to more severe bleeding. Therefore, a clear diagnosis is necessary. Simple hemangiomas do not require treatment, while aneurysms do. Surgery is generally recommended, and after the procedure, it is essential to pay close attention to rest and avoid spicy and irritating foods.
