  2. Cherry Angiomas: Small, raised, bright red bumps that are “generally harmless” and more common with age.
  3. Heat Rash: Occurs when sweat gets trapped in ducts, leading to red, itchy dots.
  4. Allergic Reactions: Can be triggered by food, substances, or insect bites, causing redness and itchy rashes.
  5. Folliculitis: Inflammation of hair follicles, often due to bacterial or fungal infections, resulting in red, pus-filled dots.
  6. Cellulitis: A bacterial skin infection that “requires medical attention and treatment with antibiotics.”
  7. Impetigo: A contagious bacterial infection with red sores that “ooze fluid” and later form a crust.
  8. Vasculitis: Involves inflammation of blood vessels and can be “associated with autoimmune disorders.”
  9. Hemangiomas: Harmless birthmarks caused by abnormal blood vessel growth, though occasionally medical intervention may be needed.
