A Nigerian lady identified as God’s pikin on Twitter has shared her issue with the world after a doctor operated her daughter and left her with a large facial scar.
NAIJ.com gathered that the little child was suffering from capillary hemangioma which the mother described to be a collection of bad blood cells. She also revealed that it was not malignant as the doctor had told her it was a simple procedure.

Afterwards, the doctor did not brief her or tell her how the surgery went. It was until the spot was opened for dressing that she knew how far he had gone.
In response to her claims, a Twitter user identified as Dr Giroud Otitoju said the doctor might have made a wide circumferential or lenticular dissection to avoid the tumor and bleeding. This according to the man was perhaps, the doctor’s way of totally removing what was in there.
He tried calming the young woman by telling her that scarring is a known complication with hemangiomas as it often grows into the orbit, ears and skull from the forehead.
