Liver hemangioma is the most common benign tumour diagnosed in the liver. A small hemangioma does not pose any problem. It is commonly detected in USG when scan is done for some other reason. So you can check it up after 1 year to assess the growth
Next Steps
No need to panic. Conservative treatment. repeat a scan after 1 year
