If a cervical hemangioma is small in size, treatment may be temporarily avoided; however, regular hospital check-ups are necessary. It's also important to maintain healthy lifestyle habits and manage negative emotions. If the tumor is large and meets surgical indications, prompt surgical intervention—such as percutaneous vertebroplasty—is recommended to completely remove the tumor. Since hemangiomas may recur, regular follow-up examinations at the hospital after surgery are essential.
