Have Cherry Angiomas On Chest And Scalp, Severe Outbreaks, Itching And Burning Sensation. Is There An Antiviral Medicine?
I have cherry angiomas coming up mostly on my chest and scalp.They itch like crazy .Last year I had 3 come up on my chest and I burned them off using a candle and a paperclip. It stopped itching on my chest but I never messed with the ones that came up on my scalp. My scalp has continuously itched for over a year and just recently im having a crazy outbreak of them on my chest again. I know the first thing you guys will say is go to the doc to have them evaluated but what will they do for the problem if I go? Is there any antiviral medications even out for this. I actually went to the doc at pri med for itchy chest when they first came up and told him about my scalp itching too.He acted like its no big deal and angiomas are harmless .He gave me a steroid pack but that did nothing. The only thing that worked was burning them off by my method.

HI
Thank for asking to HCM
I rally feel pity for you, you really need medical help, first thing you need to do is stop burning the red spots or whatever it may be but for sure it is not the angioma as you consider it, it may be some kind of skin lesion that wont harm you any more, and will go away with it own if you will allow it to stay there for required time as it needs say a less than month, for symptomatic relief you can take Diphendihygramine tab, three time in day every thing will be okay, one very important thing I would like to say you that keep your self away from anxiety, depression, illusion, delusion, mania, otherwise the day will come then you will be in need of psychological help, and that would be bad, take good care of your self.
