What is the cause of the red mole?

Almost everyone will have black moles on their body, but not everyone will have red moles, birthmarks, etc. One of the reasons for having red moles on your body is health issues. So, what exactly is the cause of red moles on the body?

Causes of red moles on the body

1. Allergic reaction. You should pay attention to what you have eaten in the last few days and what kind of food you don’t usually eat. Incompatible foods can easily lead to the occurrence of red moles. However, in this case, you only need to take some allergy treatment medicines or apply allergy treatment ointments.

2. Skin urticaria, eczema, etc. This phenomenon is likely to occur if the weather changes too quickly and the physical and psychological burdens are increased.

3. Normal physiological phenomenon. Spider nevi may appear in women during puberty and pregnancy due to the increase of estrogen in their bodies.

4. Liver disease. For patients with viral hepatitis, especially hepatitis B, spider nevi are one of the most obvious and special symptoms of hepatitis B. As liver cells are damaged, the liver's ability to inactivate estrogen weakens, and the estrogen content increases accordingly, resulting in spider nevi.

5. Hemangioma. This may happen to newborn babies.

6. The medical name of the small red mole is "cherry angioma", which is a red mole that grows in the shallow layer of the skin. Its cause is related to skin aging and blood vessel hyperplasia. Due to the loosening and aging of the connective tissue around the skin, which leads to the expansion of capillaries, small red moles may appear more and more or get larger as people age (usually starting to grow after middle age). They are prone to occur on the trunk, upper arms and thighs, and are bright red or dark red in color, hence the nicknames "cherry mole" or "cinnabar mole".

7. Beware of "spider nevi" which are symptoms of liver disease. The main feature of small red moles is that they are "distinct" and sometimes protrude. However, as long as there is no "mutation", they will not affect your health and do not require special treatment. Zheng Huiwen specifically explained that the so-called mutation refers to whether there is abnormal growth or bleeding. Generally, the probability of disease occurrence is very small, so there is no need to worry. However, if it is a divergent "spider hemangioma", special attention should be paid. If necessary, further examination is required to determine whether there is chronic liver disease or cirrhosis.

When the baby was born, a protruding red mole grew under the ribs. It grew larger as the baby grew. If you look closely, you can see that it is congested. Does it need treatment?

Ziweifu Analysis: It is considered to be a hemangioma. Some newborns have bright red marks on their skin after birth. Some say it is a mark left by the "bed mother", while others say it is a "birthmark", but this is actually a "hemangioma" that is common in young children. Hemangiomas are not always detected at birth. About half of hemangiomas appear in the first week or first year of life. Hemangiomas can grow anywhere on the body, but are most common on the surface of the skin. About half of hemangiomas occur on the head, face, and neck, and are most likely to cause appearance problems.

Regardless of numerology or folk tales, from a medical point of view, most of the small red moles on the skin are benign. Unless they seriously affect the appearance or there are abnormal conditions, no special treatment is required. The congestion in this red mole is an abnormal condition. It is recommended that parents take their children to the hospital for an examination as soon as possible.
