Q: new cherry angiomas broken capillaries
asked by: SnickerBoo on June 11th, 2004

When I search online for these symptoms, I only get hits related to pretty benign things. I'm not sure if I should even see a doctor. However all of these things seems to have a very sudden onset. In the past week or so, I have noticed a ton of new cherry angiomas, I have had about 5 broken capillaries form on my face, and I have tiny pinprick-like blood-coloured spots on my arms (tons of them). I have no abnormal bleeding but having some very deep bruising. Is this something related to my cell count or platelets or is it just normal and I shouldn't worry? My husband is of the latter opinion. Thanks.

I am a 27 year old male, and have had numerous cherry angiomas appear in the last 5 weeks, the first lot over about a 3 day period!

My other symptoms include a dry cough (5 weeks), pain in the back which doesn't seem to be muscular, and trouble swallowing. My areola has some new lumps on it and the nipples have gone white. I seem to have a number of new moles/spots on my body.

The doctor says that de-morgan spots (cherry angiomas) are nothing to worry about, but i've read that they usually onset slowly after about 40. I have also read that an outbreak of them can indicate a cancerous growth elsewhere in the body.

Have you had any further complications snickerboo?

red dots
I have had many red dots appear on my arms and wondered if snickerboo or flipr are doing well, I'm not sure what this means. Any reply would be really appreciated.
