What Causes Small Red Spots On The Forearm?
I m 69, and have small dark red spots on my left forearm above the wrist bone. I thought they were caused by wearing my heavy silver cuff bracelet with older thinner skin, but it s been 2 months without wearing the bracelet and the spots aren t going away, maybe spreading. No itch, no pain. Also, do varicose veins ever start hurting?
