Question 1

a skin level red dot is on my skin. it was the size of a pin head and itched profusely for an hour then turned brown. now it's back. what is it?

Accepted Answer

Nondiagnostic: Such a tiny lesion is nonspecific. Could it have been an insect bite? If these lesions recur or increase in size or number, have a physician examine you.

Question 2

is being a couple of years that an getting a red dot in my face like a modquito bite and itch?

Accepted Answer

See a doctor/derm: Any bothersome skin spot that persists over time needs to be evaluated. The skin on the face is especially prone to sun damage that can result in skin cancer. Get it checked. It may be nothing, but it's best to have someone look. Even if nothing worrisome, your doctor may be able to help with some kind of treatment.

Question 3

red dot on penile head. how? is that normal?

Accepted Answer

Could or could not : Depends on whether its new or old.  Many things can cause a red spot.

Question 4

my face grow some little red dot. is not painful, itchy  or any puss in it. what's it?

Accepted Answer

Red dots: The description of your facial lesions is vague at best. See your primary care provider or a dermatologist for guidance.

Question 5

there is a red  blood dot on my face tdy when i woke up. it look like it bledd internally. omh why? will it go away

Accepted Answer

Depends: If the dot is a point of trauma, or represents a small blood vessel that broke, then it will go away. There are some spots that are permanent or may even get bigger - see a dermatologist if it doesn't go away and you want it removed.

Question 6

can red rush on child's face can really come from suns cream?
can bendryl really help? after how long it's start to be effective?

Accepted Answer

Possible but: If the child is really young (under 2 years) and has a strong family history of allergy, this may well be the early stage of atopic eczema. We need more information to give you a better answer. Certainly photosensitivity from a sunscreen is possible but usually found in adults and not young children.

Question 7

what would be red little bumps on a child's face near the nose?

Accepted Answer

Rash in face by nose: It's hard to tell without seeing the rash. Sending a photo may help.

Question 8

i have a red little dot on my face. looks veiny. it is the size of a pimple but won't go away ?

Accepted Answer

Get it checked: I recommend seeing your Family Doctor to get this checked out. It could be a benign (non-harmful) thing, but it could also be a skin cancer, dilated blood vessel, or a few other things.  The only way to know for sure is to be seen by your doctor. Good luck.

Question 9

i have had a small red flat dot on my face (cheek). it's not a bump, its not an itch, and it doesn't hurt. i've had it for about 5 years.please help!

Accepted Answer

Have your dr see it: You may want to have your pcp dr. Look at it more closely. It's probably nothing too serious, especially if it's flat, and hasn't changed size in 5 years. However he may need to refer you to age dermatologist, in case there's a need to work it up further. If it's an angioma, it can be treated easily.

Question 10

i have popped a spot and it has turned dark and has a red dot on a bump on my face. i am black and i don't know what to do. what products should i use?

Accepted Answer

See dermatologist : Without examining your skin it's hard to say exactly what the cause of the skin change is. After minor skin injury, many people can develop more pigment in the area of injury. This is called post traumatic or post-inflammatory hyperpigmentation.  In order to determine if this is the right condition, you should be seen by a skin professional for an examination.
