Freckles are usually benign and are often seen in the summer on people with fair skin and light-hair. For people who do freckle easy, they could be prone to cancer.

Depending on the person's skin tone, freckles may appear to be either a brownish or reddish hue. If you have fairly pale skin and or red hair, you might be prone to freckles that are more red in color. If this isn't the case, then talking to a dermatologist would be advisable.

Red freckles could be a sign of sun damage. I would talk to your doctor about them. Make sure you are using sunscreen too.

It depends, it would be best to get it checked out. I had a large red spot on my face that turned out to be skin cancer.
