What Do Red Spots All Over The Body Indicate?

I have tiny red dots all over my body. Not raised or itchy some are clustered around groin area and thighs. A few on my neck arms and lower waist near pelvis. Some on my arms near where they draw blood. I recently put apple cider vinegar on my body I remember putting it on my groin area, neck arms and back. It might have got on my other arm whike i was doing this. I also started drinking beet root powder. Had one new sexual partner.

Hello and Welcome to ‘Ask A Doctor’ service.

I have reviewed your query and here is my advice.

As per your query, you have symptoms of red spots all over the body , which seems to be due to environment factors, excessive sun exposure, contact dermatitis and could be allergic reaction.

Need not to worry. I would suggest you to give cold compresses to red spots several times a day to prevent from swelling and itching and take over the counter antihistamine drug like Benadryl. Cover your skin while exposing sunlight. If symptoms still persist the consult dermatologist for proper examination and treatment . Doctor may perform skin test and challenge to find out the trigger factor. Doctor may prescribe other steroid cream, anti inflammatory drug or drugs that can suppress immune system.

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
