What Causes Small Red Dots On My Arms?
I have tiny red blood looking small red dots on my arms. It started out with a few and know everyday there is more on both arms. I have not checked any other part of my body yet because I figured I they would disappear from my arms but instead I just keep getting more.

Hello,
As per your history it may be due to allergic reaction. You can apply hydrocortisone ointment locally three times a day. You can take tab lotridine in case of itching. If still you don't get relief then I will advise you to consult with dermatologist, he may procure blood investigations, complete hemogram, and skin patch test for further treatment. Till then keep your self hydrated and maintain hygiene.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
