What does treatment for hemangiomas include?

Many people know about hemangioma in their daily lives. After suffering from hemangioma, patients must pay attention to choosing standardized treatment methods. First of all, it can be treated through surgery or laser. In addition, the treatment effect can be achieved through skin repair methods.

Treatment strategy

Prevent or treat serious life-threatening or functional complications, relieve pain, and avoid overtreatment of lesions that can resolve on their own and have a good prognosis.

Surgery

Surgical treatment of hemangioma: mainly surgical excision. On the one hand, skin grafting is needed after excision of the lesion, and full-thickness skin grafts or medium-thickness skin grafts are usually selected for better results. On the other hand, if the lesion is large, it cannot be directly sutured after surgical excision of the port-wine stain, and it needs to be repaired by transferring the adjacent skin flap, or using tissue expander therapy, that is, implanting a tissue expander around the lesion and removing it after 2 to 3 months. The local skin expansion is ready, and then repair is performed.

Other treatments

Laser treatment: Using Q-switched pulse dye laser, by adopting 585nm wavelength, ideal pulse width and multiple light spots, it is particularly suitable for treating various skin diseases. But it is easy to leave scars.

Prognosis

Once a hemangioma is diagnosed, timely professional treatment is provided and the prognosis is generally good.

Diet care

Daily care

1. Appropriate exercise, because moderate exercise can not only strengthen the body, but also enhance the elasticity of blood vessels and keep blood vessels softened. Vigorous exercise may cause fragile blood vessels to rupture and should be avoided. 2. Maintain a calm mind. Emotions of extreme joy or anger can cause blood pressure fluctuations, damage the elasticity of blood vessels, and thus accelerate blood vessel aging. 3. Pay attention to rest and avoid excessive fatigue and stress. Long-term stress and excessive fatigue will also increase the incidence of hemangioma. 4. For infants and young children with hemangioma, parents should cut their children's nails frequently to prevent them from scratching the tumor. In addition, parents should be careful not to rub the tumor too hard when bathing their children to prevent the tumor from rupturing and bleeding.
