What To Do For Bleeding Strawberry Birthmark In Genital?
my 6 month old daughter has a strawberry birthmark on her genital. It has been bleeding and i took her to the doctors who prescribed her fucidin as it was infected. It doesn't seen to be getting any better and now the one side is red and swollen aswell as bleeding. She screams all day and all night which is very unusual. Any advice would be much appreciated

Infected hemangioma are quite painful and especially there is increased risk of bleeding.
Apart from local antibiotic, it will require systemic antibiotic along with analgesic like Ibuprofen( also get complete blood count and platelet count.)
Do get back to me with clinical picture.
