Cherry
Angioma - Symptoms and Treatments
Cherry angioma are small, red
bumps that may protrude slightly above the skin. They generally
appear after the age of forty, and they are very common and harmless;
however, they may expand with time. Though this is not a serious
condition, it is possible to have a cherry angioma removed if it
appears in a high profile location on your body. Some of the methods
of removal for cherry angioma include:
- Electrosurgery
- Cryotherapy (freezing)
- Laser removal
There is no known health risks associated
with cherry angioma; however, they may bleed excessively if injured.
If you have an unsightly cherry angioma that you would like to be
rid of, talk to your doctor about what the best options for removal
are. There are over- the-counter medications and natural remedies
that may also help to minimize the appearance of your cherry angioma.
