This could be something called Aplasia and is found in the blood of someone that is anemic. That being said I'm not sure you can see these spots with the naked eye. I believe it takes a lab with the proper equipment to analyze the blood to make this call.

I would suggest you visit your doctor for if it is Aplasia and you are anemic you need proper treatment. This is something that needs a proper diagnosis not a layman's guess based on a few minutes of reading.

Seeing a doctor at this time is also an opportunity for you to talk with the doctor about the cutting. Cutting is a sign of depression. I don't know what is causing you to feel depressed though for young teenagers going through the early stages of puberty this is not unusual.

Back in the dark ages when I was 13, around the time they invented fire, ha-ha. Our parents called this a phase we had to go through. Today doctors know better and there are things they can do tell help you with whatever is bothering you.

At 13 you are old enough to see the doctor without mom or dad being in the room with you. Just ask to see the doctor alone. If you say so in front of the doctor he or she should understand you want to speak to him or her in private and will ask your parent to wait in the waiting room. I know the doctor will do everything they legally can to keep your confidence while being able to treat you for whatever is bothering you.

Cutting can be very dangerous and this is not a lecture on cutting but an offer of how to get help without actually having to tell your parents in order to get that help.

You need to see the doctor for the other thing, it is a perfect opportunity to speak to the doctor about the cutting and get the help you need.
