Cherry Angioma
Cherry angioma is a small, benign skin lesion formed by a cluster of tiny blood vessels near the surface of the skin. It usually looks like a small dot or shiny red bump, more frequent on the trunk from adulthood onward.
Usual characteristics:
- Intense red or maroon color
- Rounded shape and defined borders
- Size that can range from a dot to a few millimeters
When is it worth checking? Although it is generally harmless, it is worthwhile for a professional to observe it if it changes color, grows noticeably, bleeds, or looks different from the others.
Who evaluates it? The skin is the domain of the dermatologist, and when it appears in children the pediatric dermatologist is the one who examines it. A specialized opinion allows confirming that it is a lesion of no importance and clarifying any cosmetic concern.
