Hi,

Red pimple like lesion might be cherry angioma...also called de Morgan spots. It is benign condition and may be associated with obesity,DM,Dyslipidemias, endocrinal diseases. There is dilated capillaries in the dermis. It may be kept untreated. If it is embarassing, you may consult dermatologist for the treatment. You may take antihistaminic to relieve itch.It may be removed by electrocautery under local anaesthesia. It is a minor procedure done in OPD. I hope you got my answer.

Thanks.
