It is called a hemangioma. it will subside spontaneously without any treatment over a period of 2 years. need not worry .nothing need to be done, but just take care that the child do not hurt himself over that mark, as it contains blood vessels and is likely to bleed if any trauma happens there
Hello,
It's birth mark which initially increase in size and by one year, it's going to decrease.
Don't rub, if anything else consult your doctor.
Take care.
