Accompanied by the crisp crying, the baby came to us. Many babies will have birthmarks after they are born, and many people think it is nothing. Some elderly people think this is a mark given by God. In most people's impression, birthmarks are blue, and no matter what kind of birthmarks are, adults think it doesn't matter if they are not on the baby's face, but this is not the case.
Not long ago, a mother came to the doctor with her 4-year-old child. When the doctor saw the birthmarks under the armpits and toes, she roughly understood the situation. The child's condition was not as good as it looked. It is very likely that it was melanoma or pre-melanoma symptoms. According to the mother's recollection, the child's birthmark was not congenitally numerous, but later it became more and more numerous and the color changed. The elderly at home believe that growing on the feet is the "kirin's feet" and growing on the armpits is to make money. In this way, they did not go to the hospital for treatment, which delayed the condition.
What kind of birthmark is a harmless birthmark that you don’t need to pay attention to throughout your life, and what kind of birthmarks have the possibility of malignant lesions? Parents must have enough knowledge to distinguish whether they need medical treatment. How to distinguish between benign and malignant properties of birthmarks?
There are many types of birthmarks, such as color and shape, such as red, dark gray, blue-black, light white, etc. If the birthmark is red in large areas and has obvious hereditary properties, and the range of birthmarks does not increase with age, it is generally benign.
Other color birthmarks, if they are above the skin or under the skin, if the nature cannot be determined and there are signs of gradual increase or enlargement, be sure to seek medical treatment. Especially for birthmarks that are flower-shaped or higher than the skin, and they look very shocking. They are very likely to be vicious and need to be intervened as soon as possible and must not be allowed to develop. They should take the baby as soon as possible to deal with it.
Birthmarks with non-benign tendencies often represent various complex factors. When distinguishing, you must seek professional guidance.
Which four birthmarks are most likely to appear on babies?
1, Mongolian spotted
, etc. are the most common in babies. Most children will have it. It is basically light blue and light blue, which appears on the buttocks and waist of the child, and will not be higher than the skin, which is very smooth. Parents don’t have to worry that this kind of Mongolian spot will gradually disappear as the child grows up, and basically babies over one year old can no longer see the mark of Mongolian spots.
2. Large area of dark erythema
. This kind of spots like wine sprinkled on the skin are often also called wine-like moles. This mole has a genetic tendency, and what makes parents most trouble is that this kind of erythema often appears on the back of the neck or face. Some will disappear with age, but some dark spots similar to wine-like moles have complex reasons and generally will not disappear with age, but will not affect the health of the baby, but will affect the appearance of the baby.
3, "latte" spot
has a kind of spot, which looks like "latte" color, and is often called coffee milk spot , which is tan spot, which is generally round or oval. As the child grows up, his diet and living habits become deeper and deeper, just like a child will not become as white as he is just born, this birthmark will also look gradually obvious, but will not affect his health. But if there are many, more than six, it may be neurofibroma.
4, pigmented nevus
pigmented nevus is often divided into two types: congenital and acquired. The common appearance of children is often congenital pigmented nevus, which has no specific size or shape, and the parts also grow randomly. Some look uncomfortable, and some are not related to pain and itch, but if it occurs more frequently or grows bigger, you must suspect that it is melanoma.
In order to avoid the impact of "birthmarks" when the child is born, pregnant mothers must maintain good eating habits during pregnancy, eat more fresh fruits and vegetables, do not eat too dark foods, or come into contact with toxins, and eating more coarse grains is also very beneficial to the human body.In addition to the diet during pregnancy, the formation of birthmarks is also closely related to the behavior of pregnant mothers. They are excessive in daily life and often stay up late, which can easily cause toxins to enter the blood. The impact of toxins makes it very likely that spots appear on the baby's body are also very likely.
Even though medicine is prosperous nowadays, many congenital birthmarks are still "incurable diseases". If they are smooth and flat, and integrated with the skin, it is difficult to completely remove them through medical means. Therefore, for the future happiness of the child, you must pay attention to the care during pregnancy.
