is it diagnosed as per the protocol...if yes this information will help you otherwise consult good oncologist they will help you The majority of hemangiomas never need any form of treatment. Some parents feel that hemangioma treatment is necessary because the marks can be disfiguring and may cause social or psychological problems. Doctors, however, may be hesitant to treat a hemangioma that isn't causing physical problems because hemangiomas usually fade gradually without treatment, and because treatments have potential side effects. If the growth interferes with your child's vision or causes other problems, treatment options may include: Corticosteroid medications. Corticosteroids can be injected into the nodule, given by mouth or applied to the skin. Side effects can include poor growth, high blood sugar, high blood pressure and cataracts.Laser surgery. Lasers can stop the growth of a hemangioma. Sometimes lasers can be used to remove a hemangioma or treat sores on a hemangioma that won't heal. Side effects include pain, infection, bleeding, scarring and changes in skin color. Research to find other treatments with fewer side effects is ongoing. Some newer, though still experimental, treatments include beta blockers, interferon alfa and topical immune suppressants.
