Patient's question:
I am 34 years old. Recently, for some reason, I have been feeling nauseous and wanting to vomit, with a dull pain in my stomach sometimes accompanied by symptoms of heartburn and acid reflux. I went to the hospital, and it was treated for a while, but it started again. How do you treat spider angiomas?Doctor's answer:
The spider angiomas you mentioned are mainly common in patients with cirrhosis. A very small number of normal people can also develop them, primarily due to a certain relationship with estrogen in the body. This is especially true after pregnancy, when estrogen and progesterone levels in the body increase, making it more likely to develop capillary expansion, which is also known as spider angiomas. Spider angiomas during pregnancy do not require treatment. For other causes, the primary treatment should focus on addressing the underlying condition, and physical therapy can be applied.
