Hi,
It may be cherry angioma most probably. Consult the dermatologist for the perfect diagnosis and proper treatment. If the lesion is cherry angioma,do not worry. Cherry angioma is a benign condition and harmless. However,blood tests like blood sugar and lipid profile may be done to find out internal disease.The condition may be associated with diabetes and hyperlipidemia. If you are obese, cherry angioma may occur. Sometimes, it may occur without any disease.
Hope this helps,
