persistent pinhead red spots

[DrThor]

Over the last month or so, I've noticed a few (~10) small, red spots at various spots on my body. (One on neck, two on chest, one on leg, etc.) The best description of the visual appearance is that they are uniform in size, symmetrical, and resemble tiny blood blisters (but more red than blisters I've gotten in the past).  They appear to be quite persistent -- I haven't noticed any change after the initial appearance.  There is no discomfort/itching -- I only know they are present because of their visual appearance.

I'm fair-skinned and have noticed over the last 6-12 months the formation of a few, isolated, small spider veins.  Neither of these conditions bother me cosmetically, but could they be related?  I'm a little surprised I would be developing these veins now (I'm 26), but perhaps it is not that unusual.  Not too concerned, just curious.

More than likely they are cherry angiomas, benign collections of blood vessels.  These start appearing during the 20's and beyond, primarily on the chest and back, but sometimes on the arms.  They have no medical significance.  They're easy to remove, but hardly anyone does.

Show your doctor next time you go.

Take care.

Dear,
I’d like to describe a little bit different way how to treat health or skin problems.
I suffered from atopic eczema all my childhood. My mom tried everything possible to help me, but nothing worked. I went to see many doctors, tried every cream or pills with no results. I remember my mom how desperately she tried. One day I don't know why, but I went to see a healer who came to my town once a month to help people. Believe or not. The eczema what I was suffering from  for 18 years was gone within few weeks. I learned at that time, that skin is only a mirror of my organism. The problem on the skin is just a demonstration of some of your organ problems. Skin problem is just one way how to let you know about that.
But anyway, when I was 20 years old I started to travel to different countries. Never had problems with my skin until I came to USA 5 years ago. I was OK for 4 years but last year I got severe eczema again. Except my face I had it everywhere.
I tried everything possible for few months, with no results at all. I decided to search for alternative help again. I got in touch with Mr. Gellner who was claiming he can treat any health problem over the distance by meditation. And he was saying that he was successful in 99% of all eczema cases so far .First I didn't believe it and was fighting with that problems for another months. Than I said to myself, I don't need to risk anything, if I'm going to try and I did. 5 months was nothing happening at all. On the 6th month my bad eczema disappeared within one week and never came back again. His treatment is very unusual but has the best advantage what nobody else can offer. You pay after you see the results. You can just give it a try and wait till it comes. From the time I got fixed from him, I started to promote his healing method around the world. It is not about money, but about helping to other people, because I know how people with eczema can feel in our society.
