Hemagioma in tounge
Hi Doctor, I am 29 Yrs male. I am having muscle clot in my tongue for 5 Yrs and it has become bigger in last 2 Yrs. I consulted with 2 doctors and identified it as
"Hemangioma". One of the doctor is suggesting "Laser Treatment" and another one is suggesting "Surgery". Could you please tell which I should choose. Thanks

Laser vs Surgery
Laser - less bleeding , more precise and costly
Surgery - less costly.
In terms of healing , there is not much difference in both methods.
If there is a availability of laser you should go for it.
