What Causes Red Bumps On Chest?

I have noticed that over the last several weeks I have developed small red bumps on my chest. They look like pimples at first but when I squeeze them I only get a small amount of clear fluid out of them. They feel as if they have a pinpoint size hard center. After squeezing them instead of going away they become red and inflammed. I am 60 years old and have had acne all my life but these appear to be something different. They do not itch and are only tender and red after I have squeezed them. Any ideas?

Hi.
Welcome to HCM.
These are most likely senile changes in skin which means due to age normally many old people get such papillary legions. No need to worry.
