I always assume they are just age related, so ignore them.

Cherry angiomas: due to aging, pregnancy, genetics. Benign.

Exactly. I see my dermatologist regularly and have asked him what they are. Totally benign.

They are just life probably …90% nothing to do with RA! I have had them for years with no problems

I'm 66 and started getting them 2 - 3 years ago. Sometimes they go away others stay. Just ageing I think. My GP said nothing to worry about.

I have loads, and ignore them. They've definitely been visible to various health professionals, and only one has even commented ( just to ask if they were normal for me...when I said yes,he just carried on with whatever I was seeing him for)

Hi

They are Campbell de Morgan spots … small red vascular lesions . Nothing to worry about - also known as small cherry angiomas

One of the gifts we get as we get older

Can be removed be removed with Advanced Electrolysis/ Diathermy … but tbh if they don’t bother you just leave them be

They can later on turn into little brown spots

Not what you're looking for?
