Brief Answer:
Benign skin lesions, common after middle age
Detailed Answer:
My Dear
Welcome with your query
I am Dr XXXXXXX XXXXXXX A XXXXXXX Consultant Dermatologist with Apollo Group in XXXXXXX
I have noted your concerns. The red spots that you have mentioned are generally seen as part of the normal aging process. these are related to inconsequential swelling of small blood vessels due to weakening of their walls with maturation of person. A good number of normal individuals develop them.
Generally, they do not need any treatment as they neither become too big nor they produce any symptoms.
Most patients of mine just need this reassurance that please come back if they bother due to increase in size or if you happen to hurt one of them leading to minor bleeding when they can be removed with simple procedure done in the office setting. But practically, rarely does one have to do anything with them.
I hope your query has been answered and please do contact me again if there is anything else that you wish to clarify.
Best wishes from all of us!
