i also have the same thing i am 24 and started noticing them about 2 yrs ago they just keep popping up. my grandmother has it really bad and it looks awefull. i do not want to be covered in them. i dont have any big ones yet and really want to know how to make them STOP popping up. i dont really care about the ones that are already there. if you do find out how to stop them please post thanks
Thanks for the reply, I know that these run in my family and my mom has several of these (15-16 in number). But my concern is that is it normal to have an outbreak of these? do they ever go away? can one stop them from comming? I have learnt that they appear gradually as you age I am in early 30's and for the number of angiomas that I have I am worried that my body will be covered with them.
Hello,
Cherry angioma is a cherry-red to purple colored benign skin tumor of unknown origin that appears most frequently after age 40.Firstly they are the size of a pinhead but they can grow and can be even1/4 inch also.
Treatment options include electrosurgery,cryotherapy with liquid nitrogen and laser vaporization(gives excellent cosmetic results).
I sincerely advise you to consult a dermatologist and discuss these treatment options with him.
Hope it helps.Take care and pls do keep me posted on how you are doing and if you have any additional queries.
