Why is it that many babies have a big green mark on their backs, but they have a big green mark? When I was young, I heard the old man say that it was called a birthmark, a mark of reincarnation, when a god or goddess made a mistake in heaven and was punished. The Jade Emperor then sent the wrongdoing immortal to earth. So that the immortal can be reborn, and be a new person before cultivating into an immortal. Because the gods and immortals do not want to be reincarnated.

The Jade Emperor then told the immortals to beat them with torture. That's why many babies are born with different sizes of green marks on their backs, and the green birthmarks on the babies' bodies will automatically recede when they grow up.

This is commonly known as the "fetal blue mark", the scientific name is called Mongolia spot (Mongolian spot), Mongolia spot preferred in the buttocks of the Oriental people, does not have any effect on the body, with the growth of age, and most of the people in the age of three to four years old will disappear without leaving traces.

Have you moms and dads ever noticed that your baby's baby always has some blue lumps on his back?

Folklore is always circulating some of these legends "For example, when a child reincarnation reincarnation, if not very active, or simply do not want to reincarnation, the king of Hades will be angry, to impose penalties, and hard to force it to reincarnation on time, so the child's buttocks and back will be kicked a piece of blue and purple There are also is the former is very rich, game over after the family to put the burial items There are too many of them, they are choked out under the body, the more bruises on the baby's body, the more treasures are buried with it

” 哈哈哈哈哈哈哈哈哈哈哈哈哈哈哈哈 嗝......... Allow me to laugh for a while before I say it hmmm.

Back to the topic Actually, these are all old folk tales So what's that big green patch on most babies' backs?

This is Mongolian spots are congenital, the incidence of which accounts for about 86.3%. They can occur in any part of the body, mostly in the lumbosacral region and buttocks. Occasionally, they can occur in the side of the femur or even the shoulder, and they are grayish-blue, blue, or bluish-black, rounded, oval, or irregular, with an inconspicuous edge, and their diameters range from only a few millimeters to more than ten centimeters, and they are mostly single, but occasionally, they can be found in many places.

There is no abnormality in the affected area except pigmentation changes, and the skin lines are normal. It is present at the time of fetus, deepens for a period of time after birth, and then gradually turns lighter in color, often fading away by itself at the age of 5-7 years without leaving any traces, and occasionally persists in adulthood or even expands. So far, there is no report of malignancy. These spots are mostly congenital and will fade away naturally, so there is no need to prevent them and parents of newborns do not need to worry too much.

This is a Mongolian spot, most Asians will have, the probability is very high, slowly will disappear.
