Hi,
Thank you for asking question on health care magic.
our history suggests that it may be a hemangioma.
Usually it regresses of its own.
It may some times need cauterisation.
You need not worry, follow your doctor's advice.
Hope this answer will serve your purpose
Please feel free to ask any more queries if required
Take care
