Question 5

have a tiny red spot on skin under right chest (upper rib). not raised or itchy. looks like cut but isn't.i have  2 others on left pectoral(also tiny)?

Accepted Answer

Not to worry: This sounds like what are called cherry hemangiomas.  These are little gifts that you get from one or both of your parents.  They are simply made up of hundreds of small blood vessels.  These growths never turn bad.  You will continue to get more as you get older.  They are very easily treated with a laser without leaving any marks.

Question 6

had hives recently, and meds helped, but have an itchy red spot on chest, that doesn't improve w/steroids. dr. checked for mold, but nothhing. help!

Accepted Answer

Hives: It sounds as if you are having a dermatologic condition called urticaria.  Urticaria is the medical terminology for hives.  It is the bodies response to a certain stimulus, such as an allergy.  The body will release histamine in response to a stimulus and histamine causes redness, swelling and itching.  Other triggers of urticaria can be cold/heat, stress, medicines, or with you, pressure on skin!

Question 7

2 weeks ago i noticed a red spot with a lump on my left breast .feels warm since then the redness has went away but the small lump  hasnt.

Accepted Answer

Small lump: As described, it sounds like you had a localized abscess or type of localized infection (with the redness, palpable lump, and warmth).  Since the lump is still there, you need to have it evaluated to be safe to assure it does not need antibiotics or to assure it is not something more serious. Best wishes.

Question 8

red spot on my breast and it hurts, what is causing this?

Accepted Answer

It could be: an insect bite.   If it doesn't resolve in a few days, or if the pain/redness is increasing, see your doctor for possible infection/cellulitis.

Question 9

i need advice on what to do with this red spot on my breast?

Accepted Answer

Lesion on breast: This can't be diagnosed with the information that is available. A history, physical examination &amp; other studies may be needed to determine cause/causes. Once accurately assessed a treatment plan can be developed (if indicated).

Question 10
