I have red dots , quite a few mostly allover my upper torso. I've had these for the longest time and didnt give them much thought, until tonight. I stumbled across a lyme blog in which the author was writing about her red dots and how they are due to babesia. Does anyone else have these?? I spent a lot of time on mepron'and zithromax and had these long before,during and after treatment. Could they just be aging?

They could also just be hereditary, but I think Babs causes the capillaries to break and that's why people say Babs. I have them everywhere, particularly my abdomen which happened when I was in the acute stages of this illness.

I think the only way to get rid of mine will be with laser, but I definitely got them when I became very ill.

Hello I have these red dots and the doc does not know what they are.

They are very small. On my belly and breast area.

They do go away but take awhile for them to do so. they look almost like a blood clot.

but are reddish and tiny. Please let me know what you think. Thanks in advance
