What are possible causes of blemishes on tomatoes?

I have a tomato plant growing on my balcony, and when the tomatoes come in, they have these dark brownish-black spots/dents on them. I'm pretty sure they arent bruises (because the plant is in a no-traffic area), and they seem to grow with the plant (i've seen the beginnings of some spots on the other tomatoes while they are still green). any idea what they could be and how to get rid of them?What are possible causes of blemishes on tomatoes?
If the spots are at the bottom of the tomatoes, it's called blossom end rot and is caused by a lack of calcium and uneven watering. It's most common with the first few tomatoes of the season because the plant is still getting established.
