Campbell de Morgan’s spot

A minute, bright red, raised lesion measuring 1 to 3 millimeters in diameter, commonly referred to as a cherry angioma or Campbell de Morgan’s spot, emerges on the trunk or limbs. This particular spot is classified as a type of noncancerous haemangioma, posing no threat to health. The appearance of these spots is attributed to the weakening of capillary walls within the dermis, the inner layer of the skin. Campbell de Morgan’s spots are prevalent among adults, particularly in the elderly population.
