How to distinguish a birthmark from a mole, and how to tell if it is a birthmark

Birthmarks usually refer to congenital localized pigmentary anomalies that are present at birth or present after birth. It can manifest as pigmented patches, such as Ota nevus, Iten's nevus, Mongolian spots, congenital pigmented nevi, brown birthmarks, etc.; It can also appear as pale red, bright red, or even dark red telangiectasia patches; It can also manifest as a brown birthmark.

As long as there is no pain or discomfort for birthmarks and moles, they are generally not needed, and if they do, they must go to a regular hospital. Do not do it yourself** to avoid negative consequences.

Moles are a common disease. It develops slowly and is usually asymptomatic. In general, common moles include brown and black "nevi," bright red, purplish, or crimson "vascular nevi," and cyan bruises.

Birthmarks "are caused by the accumulation of many pigment cells in the dermis, usually in the sacrum and arm of newborns" is not a disease, but a manifestation of the racial body with human physical characteristics.

If you want to go to a large ** department to check it, the birthmark is from your birth, the mole is because of the acquired reasons, it doesn't matter if the birthmark grows, but the formation of the mole is a symptom of the **lesion, if your mole grows bigger and bigger, it is best to pay attention. Birthmarks are actually a type of mole, some are born and some grow shortly after birth.

A birthmarks are generally lumpy pigment type, moles are relatively few, generally raised, most of them are black or brown, a small number of long hair, in fact, they belong to the birthmark category, their incidence is about 10%, most of them will not disappear by themselves, some may even cause the possibility of lesions in the future, you need to go to the hospital as soon as possible to check whether there is a possibility of lesions, I hope to help you.

The birthmark is not prominent**, the mole will be prominent**, and the birthmark has a greater impact on the patient, so it is recommended to pay attention to it and see a doctor earlier.

is the difference that a mole is a melanin deposit.

Birthmarks are congenital and acquired.

There are many more; Type.

Moles are a type of birthmark, and there are many types of birthmarks, so if it is a large mole, it is recommended to go to the hospital to see it.

If you have a birthmark, there is no way to remove it yourself, and you generally need to go to the hospital for treatment. There are many ways to remove birthmarks in hospitals, but there are three main methods commonly used, namely: laser scanning method, skin grafting and isotope **, let's talk about isotope ** and skin grafting method first, the former The effect of removing birthmarks is not very good, and there will be some sequelae after doing it, and the latter is mainly suitable for birthmarks or burns with a relatively large area, which can be used if necessary, but the effect is not very good.

Now the most commonly used method is the laser, the laser mainly uses the action of light and heat to crush or vaporize the pigment of the birthmark in the **, and the effect is relatively good.

Moles are more precisely melanin deposits.

There are many types of birthmarks.

Birthmarks can generally be divided into pigmented and vascular types, and common pigmented types include Ota nevus, congenital pigmented nevus, coffee spots, etc.; Angiotypes include bright red nevi and strawberry-like hemangiomas. Birthmarks can be found at birth, or they may develop gradually after a few months of life.

The incidence of birthmarks in newborns is about 10%, which can be said to be very common, and most of the birthmarks only affect the appearance and do not require special treatment. However, some birthmarks will be combined with abnormalities of body organs, and even have the possibility of malignant changes, which must be positive**. For example, some cavernous hemangiomas proliferate too quickly, which will cause limb mutilation, dysfunction, and even when the hemangioma expands too quickly, it will form tissue necrosis, excessive consumption of platelets, and low coagulation function and bleeding.

Some hairy animal skin-like black moles may become cancerous in the future, and the cancer cells metastasize and lead to death.

Birthmarks are easy to identify. This general birthmark is present at birth.

Newborns** have several pigmented spots, commonly known as birthmarks. If these birthmarks are not on the face, most parents will not pay much attention to them. However, from a medical point of view, they should not be taken lightly, and they are often the reaction of a child to a certain disease.

These children with birthmarks are often accompanied by neurological symptoms such as convulsions, mental retardation, and movement disorders. Sometimes, there is an abnormal reaction before neurological and other systemic symptoms appear several years later. According to statistics, there are more than 40 kinds of such diseases, but only 4 or 5 are common, such as neurofibromatosis, tuberous sclerosis, brain-trigeminal nerve hemangiomatosis, pigment disorders, etc.

After the baby is born, there are more or less "birthmarks" with abnormal pigmentation on the body, and it is usually possible to distinguish its danger and future changes according to its size, color, shape, hardness, and location.

Actively go to the hospital for treatment, and it is better to see the abnormality earlier on the **.

Birthmarks, medically known as "mother spots" or "moles", are abnormal growths of tissue during development, and abnormalities in shape and color appear on the surface. There is no color change or fading after the birthmark is pressed; Most of them do not subside and remain for life. It is recommended to go to a regular hospital for examination and diagnosis.

When the following changes appear in the skin lesions, it often indicates the possibility of early**melanoma: 1. Color changes, especially blue-black, gray, brown and variegated, are the most important; 2. Irregular surface bulging, rough scaling, and oozing, etc.; 3. The surrounding layers are uneven and jagged; 4. Rapid enlargement of skin lesions, persistent itching, scabbing or satellite nodules. For lesions suspected of melanoma, excisional biopsy is recommended.

Birthmarks are generally not painful or itchy.

Birthmarks are generally born.

Birthmarks are medically more congenital **pigment abnormalities,** there will be different shapes and colors, some experts, have pointed out that birthmarks are divided into many kinds, but they are mainly divided into pigmented birthmarks and vascular birthmarks. Will Tai Chi become malignant? Let's take a look at the specific types of birthmarks, and whether birthmarks will be malignant?

In fact, there are many birthmarks that look inconspicuous and are likely to become cancerous.

Birthmarks can also be regarded as a kind of moles, the first is the Mongolian spots that can disappear on their own, generally gray-blue or blue-black, this birthmark is there when the baby is born, as the baby grows up, the Mongolian spots will slowly disappear, there is no great harm to the human body, no need to carry out**.

The second is cavernous hemangioma, which is a congenital benign tumor, which is generally produced when the baby is born or shortly after birth, with irregular shapes and sizes, some are bright red, some are dark red, and some are blue-red, compressing certain tissues, in the absence of damage, most of them, this birthmark can still slowly fade away, and will not leave a scar.

The third type is capillary hemangioma, which is a flattened hemispherical tumor, and there will be a slight bulge, some are bright red, some are dark red, in infancy, this birthmark will grow very rapidly, but as you get older, the birthmark will slowly stop growing and can subside within a few years.

The fourth is the dark red spot, also known as the wine stain, when the baby is born, this birthmark is peach, but as the baby grows older, he remembers that the color will become darker and darker, and slowly turn into a lilac, if this birthmark grows on the eyelids, it needs to be done in time to avoid glaucoma.

The fifth is coffee, milk spots, its color is like pouring milk into coffee, the color is tan, this birthmark is generally oval, as people age, this birthmark will slowly become larger, and the color will slowly darken, but this will not affect our health, but if there are many coffee milk spots that are larger than a coin at the same time, then it should be carried out immediately**, because it is very likely to be related to neurofibromas.

The sixth type is congenital nevus, which is a birthmark that only about 1% of babies will develop, and its shape is variable, ranging from small to large, and may encompass the entire back. If you are tired and too crowded, it may become a kind of cancer, when the area is very large, it will be carried out**, the general size and color are relatively regular, the surface is smoother, and the birthmark with flatter edges is less likely to have malignant transformation, but if the color of the mole suddenly becomes uneven, the color becomes darker, and there are many small moles around the longer larger mole, and there are symptoms such as bleeding, itching and pain, then you have to go to the hospital as soon as possible, because it is very likely that a malignant transformation has occurred, if a malignant transformation occurs, Surgery is needed as soon as possible to remove it.
