Hi, dear
I have gone through your question. I can understand your concern. Your baby may have some hemangioma or congenital lesion. It is congenital condition and disappear within few months. If your doctor said that it will disappear by itself then nothing to worry. No any treatment is required for that. Just be relaxed. Hope I have answered your question, if you have doubt then I will be happy to answer. Thanks for using health care magic. Wish you a very good health.
