A member asked:
Do cherry angiomas always blanch/turn white when pressed? or do they not blanch/turn white when pressed? thank you?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
The angioma you describe is a tuft of abnormal blood vessels that if pressed will lose their blood momentarily and blanch , the color should return in a matter of seconds
