Most cherry angiomas are harmless and don't require treatment. However, not every red spot is a cherry angioma, and appearance alone cannot confirm a diagnosis.
Consider having a healthcare professional examine a spot that appears suddenly, changes noticeably, repeatedly bleeds, or looks different from your other skin marks. A dermatologist can determine what it is and discuss treatment if it becomes irritated or you want it removed.
Avoid trying to cut, burn, or otherwise remove a spot at home, as this can cause bleeding, infection, or scarring.
