Doctor's answer (1)
Dr. Peng Xiaodong
If a neck hemangioma is benign, relatively small in size, grows slowly, and does not cause any discomfort or symptoms, special treatment is generally not required; regular follow-up examinations at the hospital are recommended. If the hemangioma is malignant, medications such as Pingyangmycin or Bleomycin may be used under a doctor's guidance. Additionally, if the tumor compresses vital organs, surgical removal of the tumor can be performed at a local reputable hospital.
