Baby's fleshy fingers

If a baby's fingers are fleshy, it may be due to the presence of skin growths or local benign tumors.

1. Skin growths: These may be congenital malformations that occur in infancy, or they may be caused by family genetic factors. If the mother has a habit of smoking and drinking during pregnancy, or has long-term exposure to radioactive substances, or has long-term exposure to chemicals, it is possible that the fetus's development may be affected, resulting in the appearance of growths on the skin. If the local tumor is relatively small, most of them can be removed by laser. If the tumor is relatively large, it can be removed locally by surgery.

2. Benign tumors: When a benign tumor appears locally, there may be a piece of lipoma on the skin. Most of them can be removed through minimally invasive surgery. The prognosis after removal is usually good. You need to pay attention to the care of the wound area. You can wipe it with iodine for a short time and do a good job of disinfection. Follow the doctor's advice to change the dressing on time and avoid getting it wet, so as not to cause local inflammation and infection.

During treatment, you need to keep your diet light and nutritious. If the baby is breastfed, the breastfeeding mother also needs to eat a light diet. If the baby is fed with milk powder, he needs to maintain regular feeding habits and avoid overeating to avoid gastrointestinal dysfunction.
