tiny red spots look like blood under skin

Hi everyone! I’ve had tiny red spots on my arms, stomach and legs (mostly on my arms) for 2-3 years but recently they started appearing so fast. They don’t go. They look like blood under skin. My CBC is fine. Does anyone know what they could be? Or maybe you have something similar?

Thank you!

I have hundreds. They're mainly on my arms (top and bottom) I have a few on my chest and back and one or two on my stomach. I've had them 1 year. No idea what they are or why I've got them. Some people say PCOS or hormone problems cause them. I've heard high blood pressure can cause them, and a lot of people say mold.

Hi! I have these exact things and I sent a pic to my doctors and they said they are “cherry angioma” and they’re harmless :) I get them on my arms. I went on another forum when I found them and people were saying they were the same thing. Hope this helps!

Hi! Don’t worry 😊 I started noticing them when I was 17. I’ve read a lot of posts about this and I can tell you that a lot of young people have tiny red spots.

I dont really see red from this pic. Are they raised? They remind me of my daughter's "bumps" which have been diagnosed as keratosis pilaris. It is caused by blocked hair follicles from the overproduction of keratin.

Not what you're looking for?
