Hemangioma pain?
Hi. I've had a hemanigoma (strawberry birthmark)on my left forearm near my biceps since I was a baby. I'm now 20 and it still hasnt disappeared. I've also had some discomfort with it as it hurts to be touched and I often get a quick shooting pain in that spot almost as if I'm getting a shot. Im not sure if I should have the Dr. take a look at it or just put pain relief cream on it when it hurts. What do you suggest?
