View Full Version : Cherry haemangioma
Can anyone tell me if they ever got a cherry haemangioma in their 20's?
I got one a few years ago when I was 20 and everything I've read about them says they can be caused by damaged DNA ( which is my current obsession)
Apparently they don't generally appear till 30's - 40's. I'm feeling very anxious now that I do have premature damaged cells.
Yup, me, I remember getting one when i was about 22, but may have even had it earlier. I'm 34 now.
May I ask how big your was?... Mine was small but then I squeezed it and it bled like a mother... It ended up being about half a cm
Mine is about 1/3 of a cm, or so. I have never squeezed it, but I'm sure it would do the same if I did. Its still here with me. I've had a couple others, but have not paid them too much attention.

I have a small one, about 1mm. Notied it earlier this year. I'm nearly 26.
I have never heard anything about them being caused by DNA or cell damage. All sources I have read say nobody really knows what causes them, but the important thing to remember is they are completely harmless, and not connected to any health issues.
I have loads of tiny ones of these. I'm 27 and noticed them 2-3 years ago.
I am 38 and i have cca 15 really very tiny cherry angiomas, especially on my arms and decolt, 2 on my belly and 2 on my leg.dermatologist said completely nothing to worry about.btw my mom has them too..
Wait until you are in your 40s. Start collecting them early, and you end up with tons of them. I have so many. No big deal, but I don't like them much either. Totally benign.
I'm 31 and have several of these as well, tiny ones. Vast majority of them are on my torso, particularly my lower chest / upper abdomen.
