There are several possible causes for red dots on the skin, including heat rash, KP, contact dermatitis, and atopic dermatitis. Red dots on the skin may also occur due to more serious conditions, such as a viral or bacterial infection.
What are these bumps that look like mosquito bites?
Hives, also called urticaria (yer ti CARE ee uh), are red, itchy, raised bumps or welts on the skin. They may be small, like mosquito bites, or many inches wide. Hives can appear alone, in a group or can connect with each other to cover bigger areas. When pressed, the center of the hive turns pale.
What are tiny red pin pricks on skin?
Whilst they may appear as a 'rash', sometimes these red pin prick spots can actually be due to bleeding under the skin when our tiny capillaries burst; this is known as petechiae (Healthline, 2021).
What do Leukemia red spots look like?
Tiny red spots called petechiae
One symptom that people with leukemia might notice is tiny red spots on their skin. These pinpoints of blood are called petechiae. On light skin, these may appear as red dots. On darker skin they may be darker than the surrounding skin and less noticeable.
What do stress hives look like?
What do stress hives look like? Stress hives can look a little like bug bites: both are red, puffy, and itchy, and may appear initially as individual bumps, says Stevenson. However, hives are more often irregular in shape and can join together in larger patches, especially if you scratch them.
Can bed bug bites look like pimples?
Bed bug bites are small, red, itchy, and swollen spots that appear in clusters. They appear in the morning after you're bitten in the night. They are superficially similar to pimples.
What could be biting me at night besides bed bugs?

What do mite bites look like on humans?
In most cases, the bites of these mites cause an itchy skin rash, which may feature small lumps or pimples. “The skin might be very itchy or red for a few days, but then that will taper off,” Merchant says of mite bites. Ice and anti-itch creams like hydrocortisone can help control the swelling and itching.
Do Cherry Angiomas go away?
A cherry angioma won't go away on its own, but it's also unlikely to cause you any problems. It may bleed from time to time if it's irritated. However, a red mole that changes in size, shape, or color is always cause for concern and should be looked at by your primary care doctor or dermatologist.
Can stress cause red spots on skin?
What do stress rashes look like? Stress rashes often appear as raised red bumps called hives. They can affect any part of the body, but often a stress rash is on the face, neck, chest or arms. Hives may range from tiny dots to large welts and may form in clusters.
How does leukemia start?
As a result, there may not be enough platelets to block any burst capillaries, and blood can leak out into the skin. This leakage can cause tiny red, purple, or brown spots called petechiae to emerge on the skin. Small collections of these petechiae can form, giving the appearance of a rash.
When should you go to the ER for hives?
See a doctor if your outbreak doesn't disappear in a few days, though. And get medical help right away if you notice symptoms of angioedema (such as swelling of the lips, tongue, or throat) or a severe allergic reaction (anaphylaxis).
When should I be worried about hives?
If you think your hives or angioedema was caused by a known allergy to food or a medication, your symptoms may be an early sign of an anaphylactic reaction. Seek emergency care if you feel your tongue, lips, mouth or throat swelling or if you're having trouble breathing.
