A member asked:
Are cherry angiomas hereditary? my mom has a lot, and i'm developing new ones frequently as i get older. are they really a sign of internal malignancy
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Dont worry: A sudden outbreak of a great many seborrheic keratoses warns of internal malignancy ("sign of leser-trelat") but this is not true of common cherry angiomas. If you want, a physician who's invested in a laser can remove them easily.
