I have a niece. She is four months now. She has a small hemangioma on her upper chest and we notice that it is getting bigger as she grows old. She has this eversince she was born. I would like to ask if we should be worried about this or not? Will it disappear even without operation? If yes, at what age do you think it will disappear? How did she got this one? And lastly, how could we avoid this one to happen again? Thank you for whatever helpful response you have. Great thanks.

The best thing to do is go to the pediatrician they're the ones who knows about these cases best.

I believe that prevention is better than cure.You better bring her to the hospital for a check up.Doctors know best than anyone's opinion.My niece who passed away last year suffered from heart failure.It was late to notice that she has congenital heart disease because her mother believed old people's saying that the child was on the stage of just changing her skin color.
