Persistent or Worsening Symptoms: If the red dots continue to spread, multiply, or become more painful over time, it could be a sign of a more serious medical issue.
Accompanying Symptoms: If the red dots are accompanied by fever, fatigue, bruising, or other unusual symptoms, it may indicate an underlying health problem that requires medical evaluation.
Underlying Health Conditions: If you have a history of medical conditions such as autoimmune disorders, leukemia, or thrombocytopenia (low platelet count), it’s important to monitor any changes in your skin and get advice from a medical expert if required.
Treatment and Prevention:
Treatment for red dots on the skin depends on the underlying cause. In many cases, no treatment is necessary, and the red dots will resolve on their own over time. However, if the red dots are causing discomfort or are cosmetically undesirable, treatment options may include:
Topical Medications: Over-the-counter creams or ointments may help reduce inflammation and itching associated with red dots caused by allergic reactions or skin irritations.
Cauterization: Cherry angiomas can be removed through cauterization, a procedure that uses heat to seal off the blood vessels feeding the growth.
