Red spots: This could be a lot of things and without you in front of us it's impossible to say. See your dermatologist for assistance.

You would have to : Visit a dermatologist as the question is way to general. Red spots can be any number of things. As an aside, most pigmented lesions don't cause pain and painless lesions can be dangerous as well.
