Can this be a tumor or maybe just a cyst Posted: 07-19-03 00:08am
Hi,
Last week I notices a small red bump on my
back I thought was a pimple had started to
get bigger. Not around but it started to
stick out more, it doesn't hurt at all,
and I feel no different physically. I
have had a few sunburns since I was little
and I wasn't sure. I will of course have
it checked by a doctor, but I thought
maybe someone would know a little bit
about the subject.
Thanks,
Brandon

To Brandon,
I do not think that you have to panic.
What I think that you have is a blood
blister better known as a cherry angioma.
They usually appear on your trunk or back.
They are benign tumors. Just have it
checked by a dermatologist. I am sure it
is nothing. I have a lot of them on my
skin. I hope I was helpful to you. Teri
