###Human: What are the small red dots that occur frequently on my ankles? ###Assistant: Hi. It seems like capillaritis. That is inflammation of capillaries. It can appear after prolonged exercise and stays there without any symptoms. In other vascular problems, individuals have some sort of symptoms like pain, itching, etc. Capillaritis is not the condition to be afraid of. Sometimes it gets better itself and no treatment is a better option. Just do not stand or exercise for too long. When you are sitting put support under your feet. Do not let them in hanging position.
