Please help me! Liver hemangioma

Hi Doctor

My mom is a 41 years old lady who currently lives in China.  Two years ago, she had an surgery, X-ray surgery to remove the liver hemangioma, which was on the surface.  However, the disease got worse.  The hemangioma continued growing and now is 66x20 mm big.  We regrreted having the surgery because it got much worse after it.  I wonder if there is any health product or supplement that can help with liver hemangioma.  Also, is there any other advise?  I am very worried because the hemangioma keeps growing!!  Please help me! I am very thankful of your help and advise.  

BTW.  I have attached a recent ultrasonic inspection photo.

Thank you very much for your help.  My mom went to the hospital three days ago to get a follow up check.  The doctor said that  there is no medical care that helps shrink the tumor and that there are only surgical therapies that can remove the tumor if it grows really big.  I read your article, it does say that liver hemangioma does not cause any problems.  However, my mom starts having great pain when she gets mad.  Besides, the growth of tumor really worries me.  Since she has not recovered from the radiation surgery 3 years ago.  I want to buy her some liver supplements.  But I do not know what supplements help and that if they affect the tumor and make it worse.

Hi there, I am sorry to say there aren't any doctors here. I am a person like you trying to help others.  I found an article about this problem.  It talks about it being a benign mass which I understand means not harmful.  What has the doctor said? Have you thought about getting a second opinion?
