4 year old with Hemangioma

[Dylan39]

Hello everyone,

I am hoping for some advice please. My little girl has a small but noticable strawberry mark on her nose. She is starting to say she wishes she didn't have it. She can be quite sensitive and I am worried it is affecting her confidence. Kids do notice and ask all the time. I have told her what it is and that it will get smaller and smaller as she get older. Can anyone advice me on what she can tell her piers when she is asked about it. She really doesn't like being asked and she will be going to school in September so it's going to be inevitable that she will be asked alot

Looking forward to hearing any suggestions,

Bronagh x
