Misdiagnosed!!!

Subglottic hemangioma
A type of mass that consists mostly of blood vessels. Subglottic hemangioma grows quickly in the child's first few months of life. The child will usually show signs around the age of 3 to 6 months. Some children may outgrow this problem, as the hemangioma will begin to get smaller after the first year of life. Most children will need surgery if the obstruction is severe. This condition is very rare.
