Need Treatment For Hemangioma In The Abdomen.

I was just told from a complete abdomen ultrasound that I have a 1cm hemangioma. Is this something to be concerned about? I have had right back pain, right around ribs for about a year now. Hurts worse when I take a deep breath. Is this because of the hemangioma? No other issues but once in a while right shoulder blade hurts. Thank you.

Sir,
Haemangioma per se does not hurt.It creates problem only when it is large enough to cause pressure effects or gets infected or ruptures.All are fortunately uncommon or rare.
Here at this point it is necessary to know that which specific organ is involved.Liver is the most common site or hemangioma in the abdomen.If it is so again you need not to worry because it complicates very rarely and remains asymptomatic for whole life.
Your right back and shoulder pain may be due to some other pathology in the abdomen, probably an acid peptic disorder.You should try OMEPRAZOLE 20MG DAILY EMPTY STOMACH AT BEDTIME FOR 7-10 DAYS.Don't take much spicy food.
Stay healthy!
