Infantile Hemangioma
Infantile Hemangioma is a common type of benign tumor that appears as a red or purple mark on the skin of infants. These growths are made up of blood vessels and typically develop shortly after birth, often growing rapidly during the first few months. Most hemangiomas are found on the face, scalp, or trunk, and they can vary in size.
Most infantile hemangiomas will gradually shrink and fade over time, usually disappearing by the age of 5 to 10 years. While they are generally harmless, some may require treatment if they interfere with vision, breathing, or other functions. Regular monitoring by a healthcare professional is recommended.
