Little Red HHT

Little Red’s Guide to HHT: a condition that can cause small blood vessels to form differently. HHT, or Hereditary Hemorrhagic Telangiectasia, is a condition that some people are born with, and it can affect their blood vessels in unique ways. 

Little Red explains that these changes can sometimes cause symptoms like frequent nosebleeds or small red spots on the skin. But don’t worry! Knowing about HHT is the first step in helping kids and their families take the best care of themselves.

Little Red, will take you on a journey to understand more about HHT. He’ll explain how these differently formed blood vessels work and why they might cause some of the symptoms you see. For instance, did you know that nosebleeds happen because the blood vessels in the nose are very close to the surface and can break easily? Little Red will show you tips and tricks on how to manage nosebleeds and other symptoms.

Little Red’s Guide to HHT is important because it helps us understand our bodies better and know when to ask for help from doctors and family members. Little Red will introduce you to some amazing doctors and nurses who are experts in HHT. They know all the best ways to treat symptoms and keep kids with HHT healthy and happy.
