What do birthmarks of different colors mean?

In our life, we can see that some people are born with birthmarks, and the colors of birthmarks are different. How to tell fortune according to birthmarks of different colors? What do birthmarks of different colors mean?

What are the color types of birthmarks?

1, brown birthmark

2. White birthmark

White birthmarks (medically known as depigmentation) are sometimes found in newborn babies. White spots are often oval, like sharp leaves, while others are irregular polygons. For children with this birthmark, parents should pay attention to possible convulsions, epilepsy, mental retardation and so on.

3. Red birthmark

Red birthmarks are often seen on the forehead or neck and back of newborns. Some will stick out of the skin, generally there is no danger. But there is a kind of facial vascular hemorrhoid that can cause meningeal hemangioma. This kind of facial vascular hemorrhoid often grows on the side of the child's face and easily spreads to the nerves and blood vessels that affect the child's eyes and eyebrows. Children often have convulsions and even quadriplegia. Children with this disease are often mentally retarded. About 25% of children with this phenomenon will get glaucoma.

4, black birthmark (

Some babies will have several black birthmarks, which is no problem. But some children will have a lot of dark spots, such as linear or spiral marble lines, distributed on the limbs and trunk. Such children may also have convulsions, mental retardation and epilepsy. It is particularly noteworthy that the incidence rate of girls is significantly higher than that of boys.

5. Blue birthmark

Blue birthmarks are more common. Most of them are distributed on the baby's back, waist and buttocks. These blue birthmarks are sometimes large in area and sometimes large in number, but parents don't have to worry, because these birthmarks have nothing to do with nervous system diseases, and often disappear gradually with the growth of children's age.

Knowing this, young parents certainly don't have to talk about it. If the child has special circumstances, consult the doctor first, then pay more attention to the change of the child's age and cooperate with the doctor for early treatment in time. I believe it can help children overcome the intrusion of diseases.

Reasons for the formation of black birthmark

1, trace substances in the body: due to the serious lack of trace elements such as zinc, copper, calcium, magnesium, phenylalanine and tyrosine in human serum. Patients with black birthmarks should eat more food such as soybeans, mushrooms and whole grains, and eat less food such as alcohol, mutton, beef and seafood.

2. Melanocyte factor: Pathogenesis of black birthmark formation: Melanin is produced by melanocytes and is the main factor causing skin color change. The production of true melanin depends on the supply of tyrosine and oxygen, the activity of tyrosinase and the amount of melanosome produced.

3. Ultraviolet factor: Under normal circumstances, ultraviolet light can activate melanocytes, which is manifested by the increase of melanocytes per unit area, vigorous melanin production and accelerated exercise. Therefore, ultraviolet rays are the driving force for melanocytes to produce melanin. However, the reaction of melanocytes to ultraviolet rays should vary with the wavelength, promoting the formation of melanosomes and forming black birthmarks.

4. External cause: Black birthmark is manifested on the skin, and frequent stimulation to the affected area is also an important factor in the occurrence and development of black birthmark. Therefore, we should try to avoid the stimulation of black birthmark on the affected area and do a good job of protection.

Pathogenesis of black birthmark formation;

Melanin is produced by melanocytes and is the main factor that causes skin color change. The production of true melanin depends on the supply of tyrosine and oxygen, the activity of tyrosinase and the amount of melanosome produced.

The difference between blue birthmark and black birthmark

Pigmented skin lesions are collectively referred to as black birthmarks. Common black birthmarks include Ota nevus, eternal coffee spot, Ito hemorrhoid, benign pigmented nevus, etc. Blue birthmark is just one of them.

Blue birthmark is characterized by light brown spots, flaky pigment spots or blue-black pigment spots around the orbit; In severe cases, brown, blue-brown or blue-black pigment spots can appear on one or both sides, and extensive skin lesions can also involve scalp, ear neck, trunk, upper and lower limbs, oral cavity, nasopharyngeal mucosa and sclera. The spots are distributed in clusters with different densities, or the center is a patch and the edge is a spot.

Cyan birthmark is essentially a disease with increased melanin in dermis, which is often consistent with the distribution of branches around trigeminal nerve. Most of the blue birthmarks appear at birth or shortly after birth, some patients appear late, or appear in adolescence, postpartum or after trauma, and some patients can form blue birthmarks after 35 years old. Colors can change with seasons, such as dark colors in summer and light colors in winter, and the same emotions also have a certain influence on colors.

What's the point of a black birthmark? Black birthmark is a common skin problem of newborns, which will seriously affect the appearance. If the black birthmark cannot be removed in time, it will bring a serious burden to the child's future. So it is very necessary to remove the black birthmark. Before treatment, everyone should know how the black birthmark is formed. In view of this problem, I will give you a detailed introduction below.

Pigmented skin lesions are collectively referred to as black birthmarks. Common black birthmarks are nevus OTA, coffee spots that never disappear, Ito hemorrhoids, benign pigmented nevus and so on.

What's the significance of a red birthmark?

We should first understand the scientific theory about the formation of red birthmarks. Red birthmark is mainly due to the lack of trace elements such as zinc, copper, calcium, magnesium, phenylalanine and tyrosine in serum, which affects the biochemical process of pigment synthesis, and finally leads to the abnormal increase of pigment secretion by pigment cells, which leads to the gradual spread of epidermis through nerve transmission and the formation of plaques.

There is no definite answer to the cause of the red birthmark, but some scholars believe that the red birthmark is formed by blood vessels during embryonic development. In the process of embryo development and formation, it is stimulated by some external factors, which affects the normal development of blood vessels and leads to vascular malformation and dysplasia. The development of blood vessels in embryos can be roughly divided into three stages, namely, plexiform stage, reticular stage and dry stage. The formation of neonatal port wine nevus is probably due to the formation and development of blood vessels in the plexiform stage, because some capillaries suddenly stop developing, leading to the formation.

Red birthmark fortune telling to see the harm

The birthmark position of port wine nevus will gradually expand the area, deepen the color and deepen the depth of the lesion with the increase of the patient's age, especially when the port wine nevus grows on the obvious part of the patient's face, it will cause serious damage to the patient's external beauty. In addition, nevus flammeus can occur in any part of the patient's body. If it grows in the patient's tissues and organs, it will be pressed to the vicinity of the organs and even cause organ dysfunction. With the development of nevus flammeus, it causes bleeding. Because nevus flammeus is caused by vascular malformation and occurs in epidermis and dermis, it often breaks and bleeds after rubbing or scraping. Sometimes, nevus flammeus will have itchy skin, and patients with nevus flammeus will often be scratched, resulting in massive bleeding for a long time. The harm of port wine nevus is easy to be infected after bleeding. Therefore, patients with port wine nevus had better be treated as soon as possible.

1: wine nevus. Wine mole is also a common red birthmark, which is dark red or purple, often higher than the patient's skin, and its shape is irregular and asymmetrical. With the growth of children's age, the color of wine stains begins to deepen gradually, which is easy to cause children's deformity.

2: nevus flammeus. Wine mole is the most common red birthmark, which appears shortly after birth. It often occurs in children's cheeks, head and neck, showing red or pink patches. It is not higher than the skin, but gradually increases with the child's growth, which seriously affects the child's appearance.

3: Strawberry hemangioma. One of the most harmful red birthmarks to children's health is strawberry hemangioma. Strawberry hemangioma will grow on children's skin, or it may grow on children's mucous membranes or even internal organs. In severe cases, it is easy to cause massive bleeding in children.
