Does anyone know what these small red dots are?

They have slowly showed up on my skin and have no idea what they’re.

Those are called cherry angioma. They are common according to Google and not necessary to treat in most cases. I got this info from this link if you want to check it out.

What was so wrong with my opinion? I had a horrible experience with my platelets which caused the red dots on my skin petechiae.

@sage2021 I'm not a doctor by any means so I'm not qualified to answer this or your condition hun. I only look up stuff to try to help. I'm certain your opinion is helpful

They are called petechiae. Don't ask me why. Your blood must be too thin from taking aspirin or ate/drank something that makes your blood. And because it's so thin it goes to your pours in your skin and comes out in those little red dots.

I know they are harmless, don't stress it I got em too, you'll be fine.

Vitamin K has something to do with thinning the blood. You can get it from eating green, leafy vegetables like lettuce, and spinach. I Kno this because my son is a heart patient and is on blood thinners.
