Patient's question:
My daughter is seven years old. She has spider angiomas on her face. The child is in so much pain that she can't even wash her face now. What should I do about the spider angiomas on my child's face?Doctor's answer:
A spider angioma is a type of idiopathic telangiectasia, associated with a decrease in estrogen levels in the body. If the child does not have other symptoms, it is advisable to wait and see. If the angiomas become more pronounced, laser surgery can be considered. It is recommended to encourage the child to drink more water, get adequate rest, avoid staying up late, pay attention to diet, and avoid spicy and irritating foods. Instead, consume more fruits and vegetables, exercise moderately, and boost the child's immunity.
