I Have Tiny Red Dots On My Arms, How To Get Rid Of These ?
Female, 31 yrs old, chest cough for several weeks and ear ache. Those may be non related symptoms but it said be specific. I have tiny red dots on my arms that are non raised, non itchy, and not growing in size. It literally looks like some of my pores are red. Not rash like, or blood vessel like- I wondered if they are PRE freckles, or if they could be an indicator of something more serious. I have a long generic history of cancer on my mothers side.
