Hi all,

I was just wondering if anyone has ever saw anything like these little red dots I have on my arms. They appear to look like little red blood splodges. I can't touch touch/feel them. seem to be on the inside of my skin.

I did call the my gp about 6 weeks ago, and sent some pictures. they said it was just sun exposure but they have seemed to of spread onto other arm. I only noticed these by chance image

    Your GP is probably right. Do you use a sun cream when you are out in the sun? Its essential as you are very fair skinned. They may eventually change to tiny moles.

      Hi Marina

      I do normally use sun cream if I come into contact with the sun. I just wasn't sure if they were anything to worry about because like I say I only noticed them by chance, don't cause me any pain or anything.

      I have been taking piritene as suggested but they haven't really cleared

      Do you mean Piriton? That probably wont help. They may not clear but as I said, turn more brown like moles.
