If you are having other symptoms aling with the sudden appearance then you might need to change your diet. Do you have chronic UTIs caused by leaky gut syndrome, auto immune disorder, prone to yeast infections, stomach issues, etc.? Try giving up gluten, soy, milk prodcts, and drink only decaf coffee. I had a multitude of symptoms and giving up these things worked miracles. Food intolerances are different from food allergies and sometimes much more damaging to the body due to chronic inflammation.

Hi,

Cherry angiomas are benign , fairly common skin growths that vary in size. They can occur almost anywhere on the body but usually develop on the trunk.

They are most common after age 40. The cause is unknown. Although painless and harmless, cherry angiomas may bleed profusely if injured.

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cherry_angioma

Cherry angiomas generally do not need to be treated. If they are cosmetically displeasing or prone to bleeding, angiomas may be removed by surgery, freezing (cryotherapy ), burning (electrosurgery/cautery), or laser.

Let us know if you need any other information.

Regards.
