I have these bright red marks on my skin. I've had a few for a long time, but more recently they have been spreading (I used to have only one on my left arm, now I have multiple ones on my left arm, right arm, left leg and chest.) and they have begun to be painful. They are completely flat. They look just like freckles only bright red, and they are beginning to hurt. I went to the doctors before about them, she said they were freckles. But freckles don't cause pain (at least I am pretty sure they're not supposed to.) Also, I read that..something with cherry in it, I think Cherry Melashas are common and look like red freckles, but they aren't supposed to cause pain and when you press on them the color is supposed to go away, mine don't. These are small, normally. I have one big one about the size of the tip of a pen, but the rest are pin-tip small. Here is a picture showing the contrast of them to my skin, because I couldn't get a picture: They're not round though. More irregular, lake a wavey-oval. How do I get ride of them? The pain isn't bad, but it's annoying. Feels a bit like growing pain.
Did. I've tried that, normal lotion, steroid lotion that I had left over from my experience with poison ivy, and other stuff.
