Hello dear,

Welcome to healthcaremagic. I have read your query and understood your concern.

I will like to know whether these red spots on your forearms do persist or disappear of their own. Do you have history of fever also?

You may also require some blood investigations like complete blood count including platelet count, coagulation profile.

I will advice you to visit your doctor in person so that proper examination and evaluation your lesions can be done.

Stay healthy.
