Yep. Lots. Look a bit like tiny red pen dots.

They are totally normal but see your gp if you're worried.

Yes, the very bright pink/red ones. I have them and so does DM and her sisters so presume they are hereditary? I googled them years ago and decided they were a type of varicose vein/weak cell walls. I'm covered in them but they dont bother me...

Yup. My mum has them. Her dad had them. Never thought anything of them.

Me too. Not a problem. Completely harmless.

thank you , yes tiny red blood spots , yes like red pen dots , few on my legs and tummy one or 2 ,and arms .. think like a blood vessel leak but tiny dont go away when blanch them ...
dont itch or sore just noticed them ..

Yes - got mine checked by GP - normal.

really ...def as i described ? iv been so worried ...

Yes, I have them on my legs and boobs. They come and go, so sometimes I have more of them. Nothing to worry about.

Exactly as you describe! Your gp wouldn't think you were time wasting if you wanted them looking at for peace of mind but they are really common and harmless.

thank you all so much , iv got myself in knots worrying so much ...
im going friday for blood test results so will show them to her then , reassuring other people have them to ...

They're Campbell De Morgan spots aka cherry angiomas. Completely harmless. Anything like a mole which is changing or growing rapidly needs to be checked though.

I've got loads, I read they are supposed go away in few weeks. Yet years later , still there! Can be annoying if get a new large one not much can do!

Or if the spots are coming up quickly over a short space of time

these are not cherry angiomas i dont think , although i have 2 of those , these are blood dots tiny like pin head flat

just to tie up my thread as hate it when a threads dangling , my doctor said not to worry and some people do get these kinds of spots and not a concern , so feel a little calmer . to all who answered .
