It was a good enough solution for the time. It is the same case with birthmarks. Since the actual causes of birthmarks are hard to identify scientifically, it is only natural that we come up with myths of what they are trying to tell us. Nail fungus will cause marks to appear. If not well examined, a person can take that for a birthmark and assume that they need medical help. Get identification help if necessary but don't mistake a medical condition for a birthmark. Some birthmarks form in the womb but they can also form sometime after birth. Most of them are not harmful and will rarely call for removal methods. In fact, they are potential marks of beauty and the many mysteries of Mother Nature. All the same, some complications which we will discuss in this article can occur and call for birthmark removal. Let’s take a detailed look at birthmarks.Myths on birthmark meaning
Is it that your mother was never provided with enough strawberries to fill her craving that gave you a strawberry birthmark? Or is it that you are a reincarnation of some angel, so you have a birthmark on your chest? [RELATED] Myths will have you believe that a birthmark on the following areas have the adjacent meanings:
- Finger – you are generally good, and if given two options without any external influence, you will naturally go with the one with benefits to all
- Lip – you are a talker. A birthmark on the upper lip is associated with romance while on the lower lip is associated with the love for wisdom and new knowledge. On the edges of mouth, well, not so good unless you admire Wall Street philosophy (eat or be eaten)
- On leg – you are a traveler and they can do little to change that. The same birthmark meaning goes for marks on the toes and foot
- In hair – for some reason, myths think a person birth-marked in the hair will be great or already is
- On shoulder – you know that guy/girl who just seems to have things their way, wins big in lotto, gets the hottest guys/girls…
- Head – feel free to ignore this, but myths for birthmark meanings have it that you will not marry if you have one on the left side of your head. Apparently, right-marked individuals will politically succeed while back-marked individuals will be…well, miserable in life
- Eye – doesn’t Shakespeare tell us how much more the eye can speak more than the noisy mouth?Apparently, those birth-marked under their right eyes just seem to have money coming their way pretty easily while left marked ones won’t have to speak twice to your girlfriend before she dumps you for them
- Cheeks – as it happens, not only those blessed with dimples should have all the attention, from girls at least. Broken down quickly and no questions asked: for men, left = really bad financial issues. Right = workaholic. For women, right = nice husband, family, big house, and then of course death! Left = you know that scene when the doctor sends a patient home, to recover... or rather to die there? Cheek birthmarks are apparently not the best ones to have
- Nose – you are Winston Churchill or something. You can find creative ways even around Nazis
- Chest – are you an angel? Absolutely not, a birthmark's meaning on the chest is no luck and misery in life
- Ear – the heavens have your back. Just go do your thing; you will have the puzzle fixed even without knowing how you actually did it
- Arms – he is the family man you have been looking for. She is no woman to throw herself away on losers
- Thighs – you live your moments to the fullest.
What causes birthmarks and types?

- Salmon patches – a red birthmark is probably a salmon patch. You will mostly find them in the eye, eyelids and lips
- Mongolian spots – these ones prefer the lower part of the body especially the buttocks. They lean towards a bluish appearance
- Café-au-lait spots – oval and smooth, you will find them on the legs and buttocks
- Port-wine stains – this is the most obvious example of bundled blood vessels. They will initially appear pinkish or red but will later appear more purple
- Silvermark –it is thought to run in the family. It occurs mostly on face just before the scalp
- Hemangiomas – yet another result of abnormal development of blood vessels. They form raised bumps that are actually birthmarks
- Congenital moles –mostly brown, they are not biased about where they can appear in the body. Their sizes and shapes are not regularly defined.
Birthmark removal options and removal cost
While birthmarks can be a sign of beauty or of things the ancestors are telling you, some can lead to complications and usually require birthmark removal techniques. For example, some nevi birthmarks can end in skin cancer while strawberry birthmarks may end up as sores on the skin. In fact, they can affect vision in children should they continue to enlarge on the eye. [RELATED] Open sores resulting from birthmarks can also indicate they need to be removed. This is especially so if the sores are serious enough to cause swollen lymph nodes. In that case, they can act as entry points for bacteria and should be removed. Treatment- Surgery – a surgical operation can be conducted to physically remove the birthmark. This is especially in cases where the marks are due to bundled blood vessels
- Corticosteroids – this birthmark removal method is used to terminate growth of hemangioma birthmarks
- Interferon alfa-12 – used when the above removal technique has failed. It can reduce birthmarks in size and also stop them from growing
- Laser – just like it is with skin tags on penis removal with laser, the blood vessels thought to be bundled undesirably are killed with a laser beam
- Freezing them – compounds such as wart freeze can be used to kill off bumpy birthmarks. Cold compresses, although not as ‘cold’ as liquid nitrogen, are also an effective cold sore treatment.
