General & Family Physician 's  Response
Hello,
The of the most common reasons for red skin spots is rashes that occur from allergic reactions.
The reaction could be to food, pollen or other allergens in the air, cosmetics, skincare products, laundry detergent, or a whole host of other irritants.
I suggest using an antihistamine such as Cetirizine 10 mg daily.I also suggest using a steroid cream such as Betamethasone cream.

Hope my answer was helpful.

If you have further queries feel free to contact me again.

Kind regards!
