Spider Angioma ?
Posted: 07-18-07 05:02am

Hello,

I have had these tiny red dots on my arms for about a year or so. They look like blood underneath the skin. They do not hurt, burn, itch and are not raised off of my skin. They are not in patches they are just skattered here and there. They kind of look like tiny freckles but they are red. When I put pressure on them they turn white or disappear. Some of them are the size of a red marker tip and some of them are the size of a needle point. If someone could please shed some light on what these are I would appreciate it. I am a very healthy person.

Thank you
