What Causes Growing Blood Spots On The Body?

Yes. I have lots of blood red spots on my chest & stomach and other places of my body. They seem to be spreading. They are not painful but I worry because they are spreading. OF COURSE SOMEONE told me it meant I have kidney problems. So far I do not.

Hello - without a picture I can't tell for sure what you are referring to but perhaps you have cherry angiomas? These are usually genetically related and don't mean you have kidney problems. Here is a picture of a cherry angioma (you may have to copy and paste it into your address bar as I'm not sure the website will "link") https://www.webmd.com/skin-problems-and-treatments/picture-of-cherry-angioma-chest But to be sure, any skin abnormality should be checked by your doctor.
